Today, NEEDTOBREATHE debuted the first video in a new series of live acoustic videos the band recorded earlier in the year. You can watch "State I'm In" on NEEDTOBREATHE.com now.

The Live Room sessions were recorded in Studio A at the infamous Ocean Way Recordings (Los Angeles, CA), the same room The Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra, Radiohead, Tom Petty and more used before us. Despite the fact that we were coming off of a long break from playing music together, we knew that the opportunity to record at Ocean Way was something we would regret passing up. In retrospect, this session represents a landmark for NEEDTOBREATHE. This is the band getting our mojo back, right in time for the release of Rivers In the Wasteland.

About the series, the band wrote, "Despite the fact that we were coming off of a long break from playing music together (the session was captured before the release of Rivers In the Wasteland and its following tour), we knew that the opportunity to record at Ocean Way was something we would regret passing up. We were a bit nervous because for many of these songs, this was the first time we had played them as a band since recording them. But as we began "making noise" to test the microphones and get sounds, something happened that moved us to take chances with the setlist and the song arrangements that we are so happy we were able to document. Hopefully you can feel the energy of this incredibly special time for us. In retrospect, this session represents a landmark for NEEDTOBREATHE. This is the band getting our mojo back."
