In support of for KING + COUNTRY's What Are We Waiting For?, the duo's second Top 10 Billboard 200 charting album (#7), which garnered a GRAMMY nomination and American Music Award this year, the RIAA Platinum-selling duo and Curb | Word Entertainment recording group is gearing up for their 31-city 2023 What Are We Waiting For?

The brother duo, made up of Joel and Luke Smallbone, just scored their latest #1 Billboard Christian Airplay Chart with "Love Me Like I Am" feat. Jordin Sparks, marking their 13th #1 hit single (and 8th consecutive #1 hit single) on the chart.
"'Love Me Like I Am' is a song that speaks to God loving us right where we are and just as we are," for KING + COUNTRY shares. "The fact that radio (and the fans!) rallied to bring this idea to this world is profoundly moving to us. We're so grateful to Jordin Sparks for lending her talents in bringing this important message to the world!"
Adds Sparks, "#1 on the Billboard Charts! Thank you for KING + COUNTRY for having me on this incredible record, and thank you to the radio stations and fans across the country for showing the love!"
Additionally, the Smallbones, with Hillary Scott of Lady A, recently garnered a 2023 GRAMMY Award nomination for "Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song" for their collaborative track, "For God Is With Us". The song is co-written by the Smallbones, Josh Kerr, and Jordan Reynolds, with the official music video viewed more than 8.9 million times since its 2022 release.
In addition to their 2023 GRAMMY nomination, the duo celebrated their first-ever American Music Award win for "Favorite Inspirational Artist."
