Casting Crowns added another RIAA Platinum album with Until The Whole World Hears, making it the band's fifth record to hit Platinum status.

Their latest release, THRIVE, was named the best-selling record of 2014 according the Christian/Gospel Nielsen SoundScan chart as well.

Casting Crowns is also coming off a performance at New York's legendary Carnegie Hall on January 24 as part of a full weekend with fans. The unique worship experience featured a 275-member choir and a 40 piece (professional) orchestra. It was a three-day package that included rehearsals, time to hang out with the band and/or explore New York City.

For fans who did not perform, the band offered a "friends and family" package that boasted many perks of its own, including backstage access at Carnegie Hall and a post-concert celebration dinner cruise to the Statue of Liberty.
