Internationally recognized praise band Planetshakers released its acclaimed, 15-track album Rain earlier this month (Sept. 6) from Venture3Media (V3M). In addition to CD and digital sales, the album has already garnered a remarkable 16-million-plus streams and counting. In fact, the band has experienced a 35% growth across both its streaming and social media platforms since January and following the new full-length album release and Rain Part 1 (Jan.), Part 2 (April) and Part 3 (Aug.) EP releases.

The full-length Rain features the songs from all three EPs and the never-before-released "I Lift Your Name Up (80's Remix)" and Planetshakers' first hard rock offering, "Fall On Me (Heavy Remix)."

Recorded during the annual Planetshakers Conference that packed Melbourne Arena in Melbourne, Australia this past April and at its regional conferences attended by tens-of-thousands in the Philippines and Malaysia, as well as at Planetshakers Church, the new album features worship leaders Joth Hunt (who also produced and mixed the album), Sam Evans, Aimee Evans, BJ Pridham, Joshua Brown, Rudy Nikkerud, Chelsi Nikkerud and more.
