For KING + COUNTRY Unveil Cinematic 'What Are We Waiting For?' Video as They Announce Deluxe Album (Exclusive)

"It's this moment of, 'There's gotta be more to life,'" Luke Smallbone tells PEOPLE. "And who knows? Maybe you'll just find an oasis"

Cindy Watts is a CMA Award-winning journalist who has spent more than 20 years reporting on country music from Nashville, Tennessee. The bulk of her career was spent with The USA Today Network. She has a degree in recording industry from Middle Tennessee State University, where she recently spent a semester teaching journalism. She currently co-hosts 52-The Podcast alongside Sugarland singer/songwriter Kristian Bush. She adores baking, The Golden Girls and Dolly Parton, but not as much as she loves her two children.

Grammy-winning brother duo for KING & COUNTRY was in Canada over Memorial Day weekend when their head of socials and creative pointed out the obvious. The Australian brothers — Joel and Luke Smallbone — were preparing to release the title track of their album "What Are We Waiting For?" and announce the deluxe edition of the project. The duo is defined by its adventurous, creative elements, including dramatic and cinematic music videos. They were weeks away from sharing new music with the world and had no music video.

"He said, 'Look, this is the culmination of the album,'" Joel recalled to PEOPLE. He and Luke were sitting in the front row of a small Nashville, Tennessee–area movie theater where they had planned a viewing party for the band and their families later in the night. "This is the title track. The whole album is built around a desert theme. A monologue in the liners reads about how you've been living in a no man's land. It's this whole allegory."

The crew member pointed out their team would be in California in less than two weeks and that they should stop in the Mojave Desert and bring the allegory to life.

for KING & COUNTRY made it happen. Joel started calling key team members, changing family plans and engaging their band. They got the video treatment locked in, the budget approved, and had a workable strategy within 72 hours.

For King + Country/ Youtube

"What Are We Waiting For?" the video was released Thursday. The men announced "What Are We Waiting For?+" will be available on Sept. 15. The deluxe 17-song album includes the duo's recent four consecutive No. 1 singles "TOGETHER (feat. Kirk Franklin & Tori Kelly )," "RELATE," "For God Is with Us" and "Love Me Like I Am," previously released duets "Love Me Like I Am (feat. Jordin Sparks )" and "For God Is with Us (feat. Hillary Scott )." In addition, there are two new originals — the title track and "Better Man," written by the Smallbones, Josh Kerr, and Tedd T.

"The statement of 'What are we waiting for' was meaningful to us because that's what we're asking ourselves," Luke told PEOPLE. "What are we waiting for in how we care for our wives, and what are we waiting for when it comes to raising our children? How are we caring for each other? You can't just keep saying to yourself, 'Well, maybe tomorrow. Maybe next week.' We should do it now."

The video opens with Joel pushing his hand through the desert sand. His body is buried beneath it, and he rises through the dirt as the song starts to play and then turns to grab his brother's hand and pull him to the surface.

"The sand is weighing you down," Joel explained.

Luke added that he hopes that coming out of the sand illustrates people breaking free of how they've always lived to discover there's more to life than they realize.

As the video progresses, a sandstorm erupts, and for KING & COUNTRY retrieve members of their band, also buried in the desert. Joel remembers a guy putting dust in their faces to make the sandstorm more realistic. The scene didn't happen while he was singing, so he was able to hide his face. His brother, however, got a mouthful of dirt.

"You sing along with the music videos," Luke told PEOPLE. "There was so much dust. I started laughing at one point. It goes right in your mouth, and you can't sing anymore."

However, he said the biggest complication was their middle-of-nowhere location, which made accessing the video shoot and getting needed props, equipment and supplies more complicated.

"What was really a testament to is that everyone showed up," Joel said. Their tour manager's daughter starred alongside one of Luke's sons in the video. "The band was completely game. It's just a testament to really working hard, I think, for all of us to build a culture where people are [willing]."

"The yeses from people meant a lot," Luke added.

A few minutes later, their band, crew and families filled the small theater to screen the video for the first time. Joel stood in front of them and jokingly explained that even if someone wanted to change something — it was too late. But they didn't. People hugged and cheered as they watched the clip — and then they watched it a second time.

"It's this moment of, 'There's gotta be more to life,'" Luke said, summarizing the video. "And you go through this storm, and you go through the night, and you get to the other side. And who knows? Maybe you'll just find an oasis."

April 14, 2024 - Iran's attack on Israel

By Jerome Taylor, Heather Chen , James Legge, Sophie Tanno, Emma Tucker , Kaanita Iyer , Paul LeBlanc , Catherine Nicholls, Maureen Chowdhury , Antoinette Radford and Eve Rothenberg, CNN

A Turkish source says Iran informed Turkey in advance of the attack and the country then informed the US

From CNN’s Scott McLean in Istanbul and Xiaofei Xu in Paris

Iran informed Turkey last week, before its strike on Israel, of “the options” for retaliation, a Turkish diplomatic source told CNN. Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan then informed US Secretary of State Antony Blinken of Iran's "possible developments."

“The developments did not come as a surprise,” the source said.  “The Iranian side informed us about the options in advance,” the source said, adding that “possible developments” were also discussed during the call between Fidan and Blinken.  “The American side conveyed to Iran through us that the reaction should remain within certain limits,” the source said. “In response, Iran said that the response would be a retaliation to the attack on the Iranian embassy in Damascus and would not go beyond that.”

Turkish diplomatic sources also said that Fidan spoke Sunday with the Iranian foreign minister and said that Turkey did not want to see further escalation in the region. Fidan also spoke with British Foreign Secretary David Cameron with the same message of de-escalation.

Lebanese Hezbollah praises Iran's attack on Israel

From CNN's Hamdi Alkhshali

Lebanese militant group Hezbollah congratulated Iran's leadership following a “qualitative and unprecedented” attack targeting what it said was the “unjust and aggressive enemy entity” of Israel.

In a statement Sunday, the group praised Iran's decision to respond firmly to what it described as “Zionist aggression” against the Iranian consulate in Damascus.

Hezbollah lauded what it said was Iran's exercise of its "natural and legal" right to retaliate, despite facing “threats, intimidation, and pressure.” The operation, which Hezbollah described as executed with unparalleled courage and wisdom, achieved its military objectives despite the involvement of the United States, its international allies, and regional actors.

Israel's military calls in more reserve brigades for "operational activities" in Gaza

From CNN's Eugenia Yosef in northern Israel 

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Sunday it was calling in approximately two reserve brigades for Gaza "operational activities" after a situational assessment.

"Their calling will allow the continuous effort and readiness to defend the state of Israel and the security of civilians," the statement added.

The IDF said it could not share further details at the moment.

Some context: Tensions continue to escalate across the Middle East after Iran launched a barrage of missiles and drones on Israel on Sunday.

Iran launched  the unprecedented attack  in response to a suspected Israeli strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, earlier this month. 

Jordan's king tells Biden that ending Gaza war would prevent conflict from spreading across region

From CNN’s Caroline Faraj, Zeena Saifi, Jomana Karadsheh and Hamdi Alkhshali

US President Joe Biden spoke with King Abdullah of Jordan on Sunday, according to the White House and the Jordanian court.

Abdullah told Biden that "ending the war on Gaza immediately" is the way to prevent a regional spillover.

Discussions during the phone call also covered the need to maintain coordination between Jordan and the US on regional developments.

Earlier, the Jordanian government appealed for all parties to “exercise restraint and handle regional tensions with discipline and responsibility” following Iran’s overnight attack on Israel.

At a cabinet session chaired by Prime Minister Bisher Khasawneh, Jordanian officials emphasized the importance of de-escalation and urged all parties to act responsibly and demonstrate “utmost self-restraint." The cabinet underscored the necessity of addressing the risks and repercussions of regional escalation on international peace and security.

The government assured the public that Jordan was functioning normally, with public services, education, and healthcare facilities operating smoothly. It also reiterated support for the Jordanian Armed Forces in safeguarding the country’s security.

Early Sunday morning, residents in Amman told CNN that they saw and heard activity in the skies over the Jordanian capital, sparking panic among the population. The cabinet said it had intercepted “foreign objects in Jordanian airspace to protect citizens and residential areas.”

“While some fragments fell in various locations, no significant damage or injuries were reported,” the cabinet added.

The government said the Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission (CARC) is “continuously evaluating the situation” after temporarily closing Jordanian airspace on Sunday.

The headline and post were updated with details on a call between Biden and Abdullah.

German minister says Iran attack has brought the Middle East to "edge of abyss." Here's other reactions

From CNN's Niamh Kennedy in London, Chris Stern in Berlin, Antonia Mortensen in Milan and Al Goodman in Madrid

Germany's foreign minister Annalena Baerbock has emphasized the fragile security situation in the Middle East following Iran's attack on Israel. 

"The Iranian regime has led the entire Middle East to the edge of the abyss with its eyes wide open," Baerbock said in a statement Sunday.  The foreign minister said Tehran would have "plunged an entire region into chaos" had it not been for Israel's "effective air defenses and strong partners." 

She pointed to condemnations from countries, saying they showed that while Iran is "isolated with its aggressive behavior," Israel's defense capabilities are "strong." 

Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk also weighed in on the wider security consequences, saying that while the situation "does not pose a direct threat to Poland at the moment," it is clear that the entire "world is on the brink." 

In light of this, Poland will make sure it has a "well-prepared army" and "a stable international position," Tusk said in a social media post Sunday. 

Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said Sunday that world leaders had been united in their call for "responsibility and restraint" following the attack. 

The Spanish government "has condemned and will always condemn all forms of violence that threaten the safety and well-being of innocent civilians," Sanchez said in a post on X. 

The UK Foreign Minister David Cameron also condemned the attack against Israel "in the strongest terms" during a call with Iran's foreign minister.

"Today I formally condemned in the strongest terms Iran’s attack on Israel in a call with Iranian Foreign Minister Amir-Abdollahian. I made clear that Iran must stop these reckless attacks, de-escalate and release the [cargo ship] MSC Aries," Cameron said in a post on social media.

The post was updated with the statement from David Cameron.

From CNN staff

The White House released a photo Sunday showing US President Joe Biden speaking with the leaders of the G7.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Mideast coordinator Brett McGurk are also shown. 

The White House said in a post on X that the leaders “condemned Iran’s unprecedented attack against Israel and reaffirmed the G7's commitment to Israel's security.”

The meeting was called to discuss what Biden called an "urgent diplomatic response" to Iran's attack.

The G7 meeting has now concluded, according to an administration official.

Israel war cabinet meets to weigh response to Iran's attack. Catch up on the latest

Israel will “exact a price from Iran in a way and time that suits us,” war cabinet minister Benny Gantz said on Sunday , following the Iranian drone and missile attack on Israel.

Iran “met the strength of the Israeli security system,” Gantz said, a reference to the minimal damage caused by the assault involving hundreds of projectiles.

His comments come as Israel’s war cabinet met.

The cabinet is composed of Gantz, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. Among others in attendance Sunday were Defense Forces chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, Mossad director David Barnea, observer members Gadi Eisenkot and Aryeh Deri, national security advisor Tzachi Hanegbi and cabinet secretary Yossi Fuchs.

Here are the latest headlines:

• US president meets with G7: President Joe Biden is meeting with fellow G7 leaders to discuss what he called an "urgent diplomatic response" to Iran's attack on Israel. The emphasis on diplomacy makes clear Biden is seeking a non-military response to the drone and seeking ways to contain the risk of a wider war.
• US aid for Israel: House Speaker Mike Johnson said lawmakers will try this week to pass additional aid to Israel, but the details are not yet finalized. Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said the GOP-led House should move on the Senate-passed aid package .
• Tehran warns against new aggression: Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said any “new aggression against the interests of the Iranian nation will be met with a heavier and regrettable response,” according to Iran’s state news channel IRIB. 
• Iran targeted Israeli airbase: Tehran's attack on Israel targeted the Nevatim airbase, an Iranian army official has said on Sunday, alleging that this is where Israel's early April strike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus was launched from.
• Flights from Iran suspended: Airports in Tehran have suspended flights until 6:00 a.m. local time Monday, according to Iran's state-aligned Tasnim news agency and semi-official news outlet ISNA. All flights in and out of Iman Khomeini Airport, which serves international flights, and Tehran’s Mehrabad Airport, serving domestic flights, have been canceled. 
• Hardline Israeli ministers call for firm response: Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich urging a response that "resonates throughout the Middle East" and National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said Israel should "go crazy." Smotrich, the head of the far-right Religious Zionism party, said that if Israel hesitated, "we will put ourselves and our children in existential danger."
• Gaza ceasefire talks: A diplomatic source familiar with the ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas confirmed that Hamas has r ejected the latest proposal in talks to reach a suspension to the hostilities in Gaza.

The post was updated with the identification of attendees at the war cabinet meeting today.

Israel extends cancellation of school through Monday after Iran attack

From CNN's Lauren Izso in Tel Aviv

Israel will cancel schooling throughout the country on Monday, the Israel Defense Forces announced Sunday.

The country had already canceled schools on Sunday, which is a working day in Israel, in response to Saturday night’s Iranian drone and missile attack on the country. 

The military also announced a limit on the size of gatherings, and the cancellation of work in communities in the north and south of the country on Monday, after cancelling it on Sunday.

House Intel Committee head urges White House to respond to escalating conflict in wake of Iran attack

From CNN's Avery Lotz

US House Intelligence Committee chairman Mike Turner called on the Biden administration to respond to an “already escalating” conflict following Iran’s attack on Israel, contending Iran will strike again.

"Certainly, this is an escalation," the Ohio Republican said on NBC’s "Meet the Press" on Sunday.

Turner said that “at this point” he does not believe the US should engage in direct military action against Iran, but he called on the Biden administration to recognize the risk at hand. 

“I think what the United States needs to do is to understand that Iran has already taken the next step of understanding that they get a free pass for attacking Israel directly from Iranian soil from the United States," he said, accusing the administration of "failing to say there is a red line.”

Harry, 39, listed the United States as his "New Country/State Usually Resident," on documents filed this week with Companies House, a government-run registry of companies in the United Kingdom.

The registration, filed under Harry's full name, "Prince Henry Charles Albert David Duke of Sussex", was updated for Travalyst , the sustainable travel initiative he launched in 2019.

A spokesperson for the Sussexes told ABC News they would not comment on the filing.

The filing lists the date of Harry's residency change as June 29, 2023, the date that Buckingham Palace confirmed Harry and his wife Meghan , the Duchess of Sussex, had officially moved out of Frogmore Cottage , their former home in Windsor.

Harry and Meghan had maintained the home as their U.K. residence after moving to California in 2020 following their decision to step down from their senior royal roles.

A spokesperson for the Sussexes confirmed to ABC News in March 2023 that Harry and Meghan had been asked to "vacate" the home. Buckingham Palace did not comment on reports that Harry's father King Charles III had made the decision move his son and daughter-in-law out of the home, which is a royal residence.

The family of four is known publicly to have made only one trip to the U.K. together -- to celebrate Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee in 2022 -- since moving to the U.S.

Harry has returned to the U.K. a handful of times on his own, most recently in February, when he flew back to see Charles , who had just been diagnosed with cancer.

Later in February, Harry told ABC News' Will Reeve that he has considered getting his American citizenship.

"The American citizenship is a thought that has crossed my mind, but certainly is not something that is a high priority for me right now," he told Reeve in an interview that aired Feb. 16.

When asked what would stop him from doing so, Harry replied, "I have no idea."

After growing up in the U.K., Harry also said he doesn't know that he feels American yet, but he loves living in the U.S.

"It's amazing," he told Reeve. "I love every single day."
