Phil Joel departs
Posted 12/30/06
Bass player Phil Joel has left the band to devote more time to family and personal goals. He finishes up with the band December 31st.
"I'll always be a newsboy, it will remain a strong part of who I am", said Joel. "I've grown up with the guys and they'll always be brothers to me and the past twelve and a half years have been amazing."
"We will miss him,", said frontman Peter Furler. "We appreciate him, and wish he and his family only the best for the future."
The band has just completed a successful tour of Singapore and China without Joel as a four-piece with Paul and Jeff taking up additional vocal and bass duties.
The boys have decided at this time not to replace Phil, but to perform on their upcoming North American tour as a four-piece. "The four of us have known each other for many years now", says Furler "It would feel strange for us to bring someone new in at this point."

@PacoAteAPurpleTaco Do you guys think God cares about his hair? Let's please see the inside of people and their spirits

[cutrest]

Which newsboys-songs Phil sang lead?

[mismestera]

I think he should cut his hair. He looks ridiculous with long hair. He's a guy for Pete's sake not a woman.

@Meliniy I saw them in concert, and the Holy Spirit was moving mightily in that church arena. It was a wonderful night. I'm sorry you didn't get to see them.
