Needtobreathe

Atlantic recording group NEEDTOBREATHE has unveiled the official music video for "HAPPINESS," the lead single from the GRAMMY®-nominated rock band's forthcoming album H A R D L O V E. The highly anticipated release is set to arrive on July 15th.

"HAPPINESS was a lot of fun to make...who doesn't want to run around the streets of LA in the dead of night? It's also the first video we've ever gotten to show off our athletic skills. You're welcome America. #Rio2016," says lead singer Bear Rinehart.

The video - which can be seen here https://youtu.be/xSWnSFPrPI4 - was directed by Noble Jones (Taylor Swift, OneRepublic, Lady Antebellum, Keith Urban) and shot overnight in the streets of Downtown Los Angeles. "HAPPINESS" is impacting at Christian Radio now, with early support from over 47 CCM stations including AIR 1, WAY-FM, KLTY Dallas and WFSH Atlanta among others. The song jumped four positions at HOT AC/CHR to land at No. 5 this week, and is also No. 26 on the National Christian Audience chart.

Earlier this week, NEEDTOBREATHE opened the 2016 K-LOVE Fan Awards with a surprise performance of the single, live from the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville. The group was also nominated for Best Live Show.

NEEDTOBREATHE will celebrate the release of H A R D L O V E with "TOUR DE COMPADRES 2016," an epic US headline run kicking off August 17th at Raleigh, NC's Red Hat Amphitheater and then traveling through a November 12th finale at Lynchburg, VA's Liberty University.

Co-produced by NEEDTOBREATHE and recorded at their very own Plantation Studios in Charleston, SC, H A R D L O V E follows the band's blockbuster album Rivers In the Wasteland, which made a stunning chart debut upon its 2014 release, topping Billboard's "Top Rock Albums" and "Top Alternative Albums" charts while also entering the overall SoundScan/Billboard 200 at No. 3. What's more, the album's stunning "Multiplied" earned NEEDTOBREATHE their first ever GRAMMY® Award nomination.

The album's breakout single, "Brother (Feat. Gavin DeGraw)" proved to be the highest charting single of their career. The RIAA-certified Gold hit song soared up the charts, landing at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Christian Songs and Christian Digital Songs charts. The track's companion video - directed by independent filmmaker Jared Hogan - has drawn close to 10 million views at NEEDTOBREATHE's official YouTube channel. In addition, NEEDTOBREATHE and DeGraw rocked New York City's Times Square with an unforgettable performance of "Brother," live on ABC's Good Morning America.

NEEDTOBREATHE premiered "TOUR DE COMPADRES" in summer 2015, visiting over 40 US markets accompanied by special guests Switchfoot, Ben Rector, Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, and Colony House. The aptly named tour was a massive popular and commercial success, with highlights including a sold out date at Colorado's legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre, captured exclusively by TIDAL in the just-released mini-documentary, "NEEDTOBREATHE LIVE AT RED ROCKS."  

NEEDTOBREATHE is a GRAMMY®-nominated, American Rock 'n' Roll Band from South Carolina, effortlessly woven from the musical traditions of their upbringing in the Deep South of the United States. Comprised of brothers Bear Rinehart (vocals, guitar) and Bo Rinehart (guitar, vocals), Seth Bolt (bass, vocals), and Josh Lovelace (keys, vocals), the band signed to Atlantic/Lava Records and quickly achieved cross-genre success via five studio albums and innumerable headline tours. In addition, NEEDTOBREATHE received wide ranging attention from the national media, highlighted by performances on such high profile TV outlets as ABC's Good Morning America and Jimmy Kimmel Live, TBS' Conan, NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, CBS' Late Show with David Letterman and CBS This Morning, and the nationally syndicated Ellen DeGeneres Show.
