NEEDTOBREATHE has built a massive live following and developed a reputation for their energetic “southern groove” (New York Times) and “some of the best vocal performances, instrumentation and stage presence” (Toronto Star). The tour will support NEEDTOBREATHE’S ninth studio album Caves, set to release this fall. "Caves is the most ambitious album we’ve made so far, and it really feels like a new chapter for us as a band,” said NEEDTOBREATHE front-man Bear Rinehart. “We can’t wait to take this new energy to our fans on the road and perform these songs live. It’s going to be special." Presented by Live Nation; the San Diego Symphony does not appear on this rental event. Stay Connected on Social Media! Facebook | Instagram | X
