A Quick Chat With Needtobreathe

South Carolina-based trio NEEDTOBREATHE released their new album Rivers In the Wasteland, this week on Atlantic Records, so we caught up with bass player Seth Bolt for a quickfire Q&A to learn a little more about the Americana stalwarts.

When we first started playing music…
the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was all the rage.

The first time we met each other we…
were younger. Ages 7, 9, & 10. We did everything together – lived in a small town out in the country. We first banded together to create a grass cutting service (unsuccessfully).

Our biggest influences are…
Johnny Cash, Jesus Christ, & Bruce Springsteen

Listen to latest single The Heart here:

We knew we were on to something when…
our MySpace page started really taking off.

We’re most proud of …
how loyal our fans are. We’ve been a band for 14 years and feel like some of the luckiest guys in the world.

Watch a behind the scenes video from the studio here:

Our ideal support slot would be with…
The Boss.

One item we can’t live without on tour is…
Coffee

We can’t stop listening to…
“Don’t Do It” – the Marvin Gaye song covered by The Band

We’re not ashamed to admit that…
Our first time performing on stage together (as kids) was 1990. The style…Hip-Hop.

Catch us next…
On tour in the US but hopefully to a city near you soon!
