The band’s notable media appearances on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” CBS’ “60 Minutes” and ABC’s “Nightline.” They’ve also graced the cover of Billboard Magazine, which hailed them as “one of the best rock bands, period.”
“Third Day has always been, first and foremost, a live band,” said Lee in a press statement. “The best way to celebrate 30 years is to get back together for a tour. I can’t wait to get back out on the road with these guys and put on a big show for our fans.”
Soulful, gritty Grammy-winning faith-based rock artist Zach Williams is the tour’s special guest. He’s known for hits including “Chain Breaker” and his “There Was Jesus” duet with Dolly Parton.
