Nashville, Tenn. -- Award-winning, multi-platinum band NEEDTOBREATHE has released their new track “Where You Call Home” via MCA. Produced by GRAMMY-winner Dave Cobb, the track reflects a bittersweet longing for one’s place in this world, anchored by rich harmonies and delicate instrumentation. Listen HERE.

Of the song, frontman/songwriter Bear Rinehart stated, “‘Where You Call Home’ isn’t necessarily about a place. It’s about the rituals, and reminders that pull us back to who we really are. Life makes it easy to forget about what matters while we’re chasing some future we think is supposed to be. I think it’s always been dangerous to buy into the lie that freedom somehow means being untethered. In my experience, it’s a lonely place out there alone.

“Where You Call Home” follows the release of “Momma Loves Me” featuring rising Southern Rock band The Red Clay Strays. The song dives into themes of personal struggle, redemption and resilience. Billboard stated “the two groups wrap their soulful, gospel music-tinged harmonies around this song of forgiveness, grace and gratefulness…[their] blend is strikingly powerful,” while Music Row said “the track serves as a reminder of hope, resilience, and the power of music to connect generations.” The two bands also gave fans a behind-the-scenes look into how they created “Momma Loves Me” in a mini-doc that premiered on Rolling Stone, who raved “the song taps into the shared beliefs and upbringings at the heart of both NEEDTOBREATHE and Red Clay Strays, two groups that have never shied away from their faith.”

NEEDTOBREATHE’s pair of new singles are a sample of new music to come, offering a glimpse of the band’s continued evolution while staying true to the spirit that has driven their two-decade career. Their Barely Elegant Acoustic Tour continues throughout the year and into 2026, with upcoming stops in Cincinnati, Madison, Knoxville, Jacksonville, Milwaukee, Colorado Springs, and San Antonio among many others.
