Twenty-five years into one of Christian music's most enduring careers, Building 429 is reminding the world why they never stopped showing up.

The North Carolina-born Christian rock band released their new single "Give Him Praise" on April 10, 2026 - and the response from fans has been immediate. The band celebrated the release on social media with a simple but powerful message: "'Give Him Praise' is finally out everywhere! We're so excited for you to hear it."

The song is available now on Spotify and all major streaming platforms. Listen here: linktr.ee/building429

For longtime fans, this moment feels significant. Building 429 - named after Ephesians 4:29, the biblical passage about using words to build others up - has built their entire career on exactly that kind of music: anthemic, faith-forward, lyrically driven songs that meet people in real moments.

The Grammy-nominated band, comprised of frontman Jason Roy, drummer Michael Anderson, guitarist Jesse Garcia, and bassist Aaron Branch, is known for high-energy live shows and a consistent message of hope through Christ. That consistency is rare in any music genre. In Christian music, it's a gift.

Their track record speaks loudly. Their RIAA-certified gold single "Where I Belong" became one of the longest-running Christian No. 1s in Billboard history at 15 weeks, accumulating over 246 million audience impressions. Their album We Won't Be Shaken debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Christian Albums chart and earned a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album in 2013. 

With "Give Him Praise," Building 429 isn't chasing a trend - they're doing what they've always done: writing songs for the Church and the broken, pointing straight back to God.

In a music landscape that often rewards noise, a song called "Give Him Praise" feels like a quiet, powerful act of defiance. And knowing Building 429, it will sound like a stadium anthem.
