Read More Iconic pop-rock band Blessid Union of Souls will release their latest album, 'The Mission Field', on 1st March. The band exploded onto the music scene in 1995 with the smash hit 'I Believe', which was a chart hit in the UK, Asia and the USA, where it became the fourth most played song of the year.
"Thanks to the seamless merger of contagious pop, rock and soul from founder and lead singer Eliot Sloan, coupled with his ability to continuously write socially conscious and spiritually inspiring songs, it's no surprise that Blessid Union of Souls has become one of this generation's most beloved and consistent pop-rock groups", said Salvation Road Records. "With gold and platinum records and chart topping singles, the band has toured the world sharing stages and busses with the likes of Goo Goo Dolls, Bon Jovi, Third Eye Blind, Sister Hazel, Vertical Horizon, Edwin McCain and more, while making appearances on such top-rated television programs as 'Late Night with Conan O'Brien', 'Live with Regis & Kelly', 'Good Morning America', 'Top of the Pops' and VH1 to name a few."
"You don't have time to really prepare for it because all of a sudden your songs are being played on the radio, you're getting video play and landing on TV shows all around the world," says Sloan. "I've always sung about wanting to live right, and with The Mission Field, it's just a matter of taking things one step further and doing in my heart what I'm called to do. The songs we wrote for our first album Home were particularly strong in that direction, and though there was more of a light-hearted direction in some of the later tracks, the underlying spiritual tone was always there. All of the pondering and articulating matters of faith on The Mission Field are basically an extension of the ideas I first started exploring on Home, which makes the two records seem like bookends with one another."
