Peter Furler will return to music with the release of his first solo album "On Fire" on June 21 via Sparrow Records. Furler ended his long tenure as the lead singer of newsboys in 2009.
After his departure from newsboys, Furler stepped away from non-stop touring, sold much of what he owned, and moved to the Gulf of Florida to reflect, express himself through visual art, surf and play music just for pure enjoyment. "I didn't have a clue what I was doing next. I'd been doing 100-plus shows a year, writing, then finishing a record for more than a decade. It was good, but it was a merry-go-round that was never going to stop," he said. He did not plan to release any of the new music created but he believes that the result of this redefining period led to the most joyful and uplifting music of his career.
