The Hillsong United band (stylized as Hillsong UNITED or UNITED) is a worship band that originated as a part of Hillsong Church. Formed in 1998 as part of Hillsong's youth ministry, the band consists of several rotating worship leaders from the church, including Brooke Fraser, Joel Houston, Reuben Morgan and Marty Sampson. Due to several songs written by the youth ministry, Hillsong worship leader Darlene Zschech recommended that they record an album, which resulted in their debut extended play, One, which was released alongside the Hillsong Worship album Touching Heaven Changing Earth. Since then, the group has released eleven annual live albums, as well as four studio albums. The band composes songs and performs in church services as well as concerts in worldwide tours. Subsidiary bands perform monthly in London and at summer camps sponsored by Hillsong.
The single "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" from third studio album Zion reached number one on the American Billboard Christian Songs chart at the end of 2013, with remaining in the chart for 104 weeks or exactly 2 years.The song also charted on the Billboard Hot 100 in March 2014, peaking at No. 83.
