Despite a 20-year history filled with accolades, GRAMMY®-nominated, multi-platinum band

NEEDTOBREATHE approached their latest studio album with a renewed mindset – like a band still

feeling they have something to prove.

Over the years, they’ve carved out a distinctive space across multiple genres, blending modern rock, purpose-driven soul, and pop appeal into a rare and impressive track record. With five number one albums spanning the Billboard Rock, Alternative, and other charts, over three billion career streams, and multi-platinum hits like “Brother”, “Who Am I,” and “Let’s Stay Home Tonight,” NEEDTOBREATHE has captivated audiences worldwide.

Their music reflects two decades of masterful songwriting and musicianship, exploring life’s profound emotions

and experiences. Working with GRAMMY Award-winning producer Dave Cobb, the band’s latest offering “Momma Loves Me” featuring The Red Clay Strays, continues this journey, diving into themes of personal struggle, redemption and resilience.
