NEEDTOBREATHE To Launch New Album, ‘H A R D L O V E’; Schedules Tour Beginning August 17

NEEDTOBREATHE

Grammy-nominated NEEDTOBREATHE, will release its latest studio album, "H A R D L O V E," on July 15, as the American rock band will begin its tour in 50 cities across the United States with special guests Mat Kearney, Parachute, John Mark McMillan and Welshly Arms.

Frontman Bear Rinehart talked about "HAPPINESS," which is a cut of their new studio album, referring to the sacrifices that people make in order to change their lives around.

"I think that everyone who has had to make a major decision in their life knows that change is only worth it when you make the change for the right reason," he said in a press release. "Happiness after all is clearly a fleeting thing, but purpose is what brings real joy."

"I believe that there's no better place in the world than the middle of the will of God for your life."

NEEDTOBREATHE will promote "H A R D L O V E" when the rock band hits the road for "TOUR DE COMPADRES 2016," which will kick off on Aug. 17 at Red hat Ampitheater in Raleigh, NC and conclude at Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA.
