Velvet Kelm/ The Media Collective/ www.themcollective.com) - Atlantic recording artists NEEDTOBREATHE and Big City Rock, joined by Decaydance/Fueled by Ramen band October Fall will hit the road together this summer for the Love & Heat Tour. The tour features low ticket prices (averaging around $10) for a full night of great new music. Slated to begin July 6 in Los Angeles, the itinerary will run through August 11, wrapping up in Chicago. All three bands are co-headlining the bill, with a changing performance order each night.
Led by brothers Bear and Bo Rinehart, South Carolina-based Lava/Atlantic band NEEDTOBREATHE has already earned a fervent following throughout the Southeast. Produced by Andy Green (Keane, KT Tunstall), Daylight marks the rock quartet's major label critically acclaimed debut with Atlantic and Sparrow records, featuring the soaring first single, "You Are Here,' currently top 10 on R&R's Christian CHR chart. The band has been touring the country non-stop since Daylight's April release, including a recent run with Grammy-Award winning rock group TRAIN. NEEDTOBREATHE will make their national television debut, performing on ESPN's Cold Pizza on July 25.
