Needtobreathe: Into The Mystery Acoustic Tour with Patrick Droney at Saenger Theatre

Not for the first time are the band turning off the amps, letting their hair down and giving the fans the intimate, soul-baring set they crave, “the success of the acoustic tours over the years has been one of the biggest surprises of our career,” said frontman Bear Rinehart. “The intimacy and conversation that takes place in these beautiful theaters has been a pretty magical experience for us as a band. So much of our music was written and recorded acoustically in a living room, and with two new albums to pull from, we want to bring that experience to you again.” They will be joined on the tour by guest Patrick Droney, who shared in Instagram, “I’ve been moved by NEEDTOBREATHE’s music for a long time and couldn’t be happier to share the stage as these are bound to be beautiful nights of stories & music.”
