Needtobreathe Hitting The Road With Taylor Swift

"It means a lot to us that Taylor hand-picked us for her Speak Now tour," Needtobreathe guitarist and co-songwriter Bo Rinehart says. "Everyone knows she has amazing fans, and we thrive on performing live, especially in front of new audiences."

Needtobreathe will join the Speak Now Tour when the North American leg kicks off on May 27th in Omaha, Neb., and will be featured on all shows in the US and Canada.

Since the 2006 release of their debut album on Atlantic Records, Needtobreathe has enjoyed great success across several radio formats, and played more than 1,000 live shows, increasing their audience at each turn.

Maybe best known for their hits "Something Beautiful" and "More Time," their music has been featured in countless television shows and movies, including MTV's "The Hills," and the motion picture P.S. I Love You. The band has built an impressive following for their live shows, which are renowned for their seamless blend of ambient, arena-ready soundscapes with the band's own decidedly Southern sensibility.

Needtobreathe's third and most recent album, "The Outsiders," was released late last summer to universal critical acclaim and a Top 20 debut on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. The band plans to record and release a new album for Atlantic in 2011.
