Nashville, Tenn. (April 10, 2026) — Curb Records award-winning band We Are Messengers announces their fifth studio album, Halfway Home. Slated for release Sept. 25, 2026, the upcoming project is available for pre-add, pre-save and pre-order HERE. Additionally, the group is giving fans a glimpse into the LP with the title cut now streaming — listen HERE. An accompanying music video also premieres today (4/10) — watch HERE.

Expansive arena rock abounds on Halfway Home. Across 13 tracks — all co-written by Irish-born frontman Darren Mulligan — We Are Messengers explores the tension between the now and the not yet. A study in contrast, the set grapples with life’s contradictions in light of our humanity. Bridging the gap between heaven and earth, the experimental, atmospheric collection boasts perceptive lyrics, driving melodies and the biggest hooks of the band’s career, primed for enthusiastic crowds and We Are Messengers’ dynamic live show.

Admitting the narrow way is lonely at times, Mulligan acknowledges his need for other people along the journey of faith as he battles the tension of walking out an earthly existence while carrying eternity in his heart on the effort’s namesake. The hazy, electro-pop selection follows arena-ready radio single “Faith Hope Love.”

After a string of dates across Australia and New Zealand that included various packed shows, We Are Messengers is currently co-headlining the “Hope Nights” tour with Danny Gokey and special guest Jon Reddick through early May. Following the spring run, the collective is scheduled to play a batch of international shows in Belgium and the Netherlands, as well as a concert in Belfast, Ireland, on May 10, marking their first headlining Irish show in 12 years.

Pre-add, pre-save or pre-order Halfway Home HERE. Stream or purchase “Halfway Home” HERE. For a full list of tour dates and more information, visit www.wearemessengersmusic.com.

About We Are Messengers:

Award-winning International band We Are Messengers — fronted by Darren Mulligan, a single-minded Irishman who writes rock ’n’ roll anthems and intimate earthly psalms for messy broken people — have the first radio single (“We Three Kings”) to debut at #1 in two decades on the Billboard Christian Airplay Chart, and the first holiday single to ever debut at #1 on the same chart. This, in addition to over 900 million career global streams, 2 RIAA-Certified Gold Singles, nearly 4 billion airplay audience, a multi-week #1 Billboard radio song (“Come What May”), and seven Top 5 and ten Top 10 Christian Airplay hits, including: “A Thousand Times,” “God Be The Glory,” “Wholehearted,” and “Maybe It’s Ok,” among others. The band has had multiple film and TV sync placements on major networks including MTV, FOX, and CBC. We Are Messengers relentlessly tours, and since its beginning in 2015, is now playing to the largest audiences of its career. The band has toured with TobyMac, Casting Crowns, Phil Wickham, Skillet, Brandon Lake, and Jeremy Camp, among others. The goal has always been to engage culture in conversation about the goodness of God, and to put words and melody to some of the hardest things we feel and experience as humans. We Are Messengers is a band that understands and loves the outsiders, the marginalized, the lost, and the least. Up next from We Are Messengers is new single, “Faith Hope Love,” available now.
