Tracing For King + Country and their music career

For King + Country was formed as a collaboration between brothers Joel David Smallbone and Luke James Smallbone, with the name being inspired by a British battle cry, as the brothers elaborated in their exclusive interview with Cross Rhythms:

"We wanted a band name that carried more meaning. We were in the studio recording our debut record that Joel had the idea of All The King's Men, like the Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme. Our producer overheard our conversation and swung around in his chair and said, 'What about For King & Country?'
"And we all felt a sense of providence at that moment. "For King and Country" was the battle cry of English soldiers willing to lay down their lives for their king and their country. And now it has become our mission, to lay down our lives for our King and our country," the duo continued.

The band released their debut studio album, Crave, on February 28, 2012. The album peaked at number 128 on the Billboard 200 album chart as well as at number 4 on the Billboard Christian album chart.

For King & Country are best known for their third studio album, Burn the Ships, which was released on October 5, 2018. The album peaked at number 7 on the Billboard 200 album chart.
