NEEDTOBREATHE is clearly one of the hardest-working bands in the industry. The South Carolina trio has not only released a new album at least every other year since 2006, but they seem to be constantly touring, between records and in support of them as well.
The band on Monday confirmed plans for their third tour of the year, The Stomping Ground Tour, which will see them playing New York's Bowery Ballroom and House of Blues in New Orleans, among others.
The news comes as the group is finishing up their forthcoming yet-untitled record, which is likely aiming for a Winter 2013/2014 release. And it'd be hard to imagine that they won't hit the road again following the album's release. Perhaps Taylor Swift gave them some good advice back in 2011 when they opened for her on her Speak Now World Tour, because they have been seemingly touring consistently ever since.
Joining them on tour will be two of our favorite acts, Ivan & Alyosha and The Wild Feathers. General on-sale begins Aug. 16.
