When a band once labeled the “most-popular overtly Christian act of all-time” announced its plans to reunite — on a cruise — many fans let the band know they are disappointed.
DC Talk, which has been on what it called an “intermission” for the past 15 years, recently told fans to watch for a big announcement coming today, May 11. Many believed the group would be reuniting for a tour, performing its hits such as “Jesus Freak” and “The Hardway,” but instead were told they may join the trio on a cruise in mid-July.
It’s been 16 years. In 2017, the intermission ends. dc talk will be performing live along with Newsboys, TobyMac, Kevin Max, Finding Favour, Capital Kings, Ryan Stevenson and Hollyn on the Jesus Freak Cruise. Sailing June 11-15, 2017 to the Bahamas and Half Moon Cay. Booking opens Monday May 16th at 8:30am ET on jesusfreakcruise.com.
