One of America's most popular Christian rock bands, Sanctus Real, will headline The Face of Love Tour in the US, kicking off April 23 in Nashville with special guests NEEDTOBREATHE and This Beautiful Republic.

"We are excited to bring our fans a great show," says Sanctus Real front man Matt Hammitt. "We're going to give them our best."

In addition to performing #1 songs like "Everything About You," "I'm Not Alright", and a rocking cover of U2's "Beautiful Day", the band will put an emphasis on The Mocha Club, an initiative of African Leadership.

Sanctus Real's endorsement of the outreach on The Face of Love Tour will help provide refugees of Darfur, Sudan, with essentials such as mosquito nets, food, clean water, and desperately needed medication.

Hammitt comments, "This organisation is making a difference on a forgotten continent and is meeting the physical needs of Africans as its leadership network offers life-sustaining hope to those that God calls 'the least' of His children.

"We're asking our fans to become educated about this and consider how they can walk beside us. We really see our efforts together making a world of difference in a real battle against HIV/AIDS, poverty and hopelessness, and giving orphans or a street child a second chance at life."

Sanctus Real will join the Disney's Night of Joy (September 7 to 8 ) line up, which includes Chris Tomlin, David Crowder Band, Brian Littrell, Leeland, Jessie Daniels, Red and Flyleaf, among many others.

It would be nice to see an African music ensemble join the tour, as they know first hand what Aids has done to them.
