Although the pop/rock quintet hails from Nashville, Tenn.,
their die-hard tour morphs into the wild mission of "being
one of the few Christian bands to take over the globe."
All Star United's earth-trotting concert schedule - reminiscent
of megasuperstars like U2 and the Rolling Stones - should
come as no surprise given the title of the band's sophomore
album, "International Anthems for the Human Race."
The genre mishmash and fun-without-apologies style that characterized
All Star United's debut is back, in even fuller, bursting-at-the-seams
force. Why? Both lyrically and musically, International Anthems
is a reflection of five young men who've seen an incredibly
diverse array of people and places in the last couple of years,
and have incorporated those experiences into all that they
do.
Albeit well-traveled, All Star United has found time to build
quite a successful career right here in the United States.
In addition to an exhaustive state-side touring schedule,
including two tours with labelmates Third Day, All Star United's
self-titled debut received a Grammy nomination for Rock/Gospel
Album Of The Year, and garnered the band four #1 radio singles
including the #1 Rock Song Of The Year ("Smash Hit")
in 1997. The band was also honored by CCM Magazine and the
readers of Release Magazine as one of the Best New Artists
Of 1997. 7 Ball Magazine voted All Star United one of the
Ten Best Albums of 1997.

As a musician I listen to the music and harmonies first.
Allstar United have a positive message, but the song writting
and talent is what grabbed me. Whether they talk about God
and his creations or deep sea fishing, I belive they are the
top of the pops!

I like Allstar United because they are not afraid to be different,
to stand up for what they believe in. They provide great music
with a powerfl message for teens today. They are a must have.
Allstar gives us a good beat with a great message. Their song
"Put your arms around me" just really spoke to me
and made me realize that other Christians can get lonely and
it is okay.
