Earlier this year, before the release of their newest album Rivers in the Wasteland, NEEDTOBREATHE recorded a series of live sessions inside a studio in Los Angeles. The band released these recordings as a series of videos, but now fans can grab the audio on iTunes in the form of a new EP called 60/50 Oceanway: The Live Room Sessions EP.
In a July newsletter, the band had this to say about the recordings, "The Live Room session was recorded in Studio A at the infamous Ocean Way Recordings (Los Angeles, CA) earlier this year, the same room that artists from The Beach Boys and Frank Sinatra to Whiskeytown, Radiohead, and Tom Petty used before us. 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."
In this week's newsletter, the band announced the digital EP's release, "We're so glad y'all enjoyed the videos we recorded at Ocean Way Studios, It was an incredible time for us as a band, so to see all your positive responses makes us even more excited to be able to release the Live Room Sessions for you TODAY. Starting today, if you grab the EP through the NTB webstore you can get 20% off other items!"
