The band has had 12 No. 1 radio singles across all formats including their major hits "Strong Tower," "What Faith Can Do" and "Carry Me To The Cross." In 2012, Kutless released their most recent studio release, Believer, to much media and sales acclaim debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Christian & Gospel Chart as well as No. 1 on the iTunes Christian Albums chart. In 2014, Kutless released a well-received worship project Glory. Launched by original members Jon Micah Sumrall (lead vocals) and guitarist James Mead, the band formed first as a modern rock/worship band at Warner Pacific College in Portland in 2000. Kutless signed to Tooth & Nail/BEC in late 2001 and released its self-titled debut the following year, which went on to become the fastest-selling debut in the label's history.

I just remembereed....he said "be honest". I just think it was really nice of them to live chat in the afternoon rather than evening cuz I actually got to see it. :)
Funny live chat memory!| Posted October 27, 2009
I once participated in a live chat with Kutless and it was CRAZY!!! Ppl kept copying and pasting the questions they asked that didn't yet get answered. The poor fellas had to keep disabling the chat just to catch up with answering. One person kept asking "how do you handle screaming girl fans that want to marry you?" One of them said "I introduce them to my wife." :D What was really awesome is they answered my question about tips for lyric writers.:D Something about use your life.
