NEEDTOBREATHE: ‘OUT OF BODY’ ALBUM REVIEW

Grammy nominated country rock band, ‘NEEDTOBREATHE’ is set to release their new album, ‘Out of Body’.

The platinum-certified band is due to be released on August 28th via Elektra Records/Centricity Music.

Out of Body finds the trio examining life, family, and friends through a youthful prism. NEEDTOBREATHE take stock of not only two decades as a band, but also first-time fatherhood and the future over a rich soundtrack of soulful rock with stadium-size scope and poetic intimacy.

The new album follows 2016’s H A R D L O V E, which debuted at No.1 on the Billboard Top Current Album Sales Chart, and featured the gold-certified title track ‘Hard Love’.

NEEDTOBREATHE introduced Out of Body in April with the release of anthemic lead single ‘Hang On’ and ballad ‘Seasons’.

American Songwriter claimed, “‘Hang On’ could easily be the next summertime sing-along, and E! News praised the track as “The sort of anthem we all need right about now.” 

Hang On’ has already sound-tracked the US ad campaign for the PGA Tour’s Impact Initiative and been featured in the season finale of American Idol.

In June, NEEDTOBREATHE launched the album’s pre-order alongside its third song ‘Survival’ (feat. Drew & Ellie Holcomb)’, and shared the emotionally charged track ‘Who Am I’:

Earlier this month, the band released the album’s fifth and final instant-grat track ‘Banks’. Fans who pre-order Out of Body will receive immediate downloads of all five songs the band have unveiled.

Tracks like, ‘Mercy Shore’, ‘Hang On’ and ‘Alive’ are foot-stompingly charged folkfest fun.

Other tracks, ‘Survival’, ‘Riding High’ and ‘Who Am I’ are an uplifting soup of feel-good, countrified anthems, with lots of banjo and electric guitar solos, that needs to be on your morning playlist.

NEEDTOBREATHE’s electric new album, ‘Out of Body’ is set to be released 28th of August via Elektra Records/Centricity Music and is available to pre order here.
