Sanctus Real

Sanctus Real returns with their new studio album Pieces Of A Real Heart.

Working with acclaimed producers Chris Stevens (Tobymac, Sanctus Real, Matthew West), Jason Ingram and Rusty Varenkamp (Tenth Avenue North, Rush of Fools, Bebo Norman) this album finds the band maturing and growing as songwriters and individuals.

Pieces Of A Real Heart is the sound of a rock band retaining their aggressive edge but incorporating more diverse musical instrumentation and sounds – as heard on the debut single “Forgiven”.

With over 350,000 career units sold, Sanctus Real has a strong radio history with six no. 1 CHR singles, six Top 5 singles and two AC Top 20 singles. Their debut single “Forgiven” is already connecting with radio listeners, and explores the theme of forgiveness in a profound and simple way. “The working-out of forgiveness is so key to our growth and maturity as followers of Jesus,” says lead singer Matt Hammitt. “The very idea that we have been forgiven for so much wrong moves, reforms, transforms and heals us. As we were framing “Forgiven” around this concept, we realized that this was such a fundamental aim for all of us – to forgive and be forgiven.”

The standout track “Lead Me” is further evidence of the band’s musical and lyrical growth, as the song follows a husband striving to lead his wife and family.

The Face of Love contains hard-hitting songs portraying universal themes of love, brokenness and the sometimes elusive sense of God’s presence.

Inspired by real-life heartache and rediscovered joy, the emotions behind each track are vulnerable and undisguised, making this album the band’s most accessible project.

Last year they won the Dove Award for ‘Modern Rock Album of the Year’.

Sanctus Real comes of age with this new album, pressing forward to carry a compelling image of hope to an eager world.

The four-member, Toledo, Ohio-based rock band is poised for 2006 to be its breakout year.

“With strong writing, excellent performances and flawless execution, The Face of Love is the sound of a good band growing up, and is by far the most satisfying work of Sanctus Real’s career”—CCM Magazine (April ‘06).

Produced by Chris Stevens (tobyMac).
