Album Of The Day: Live From The Woods by Needtobreathe
I had heard for a few years about the fun live shows that Needtobreathe put on, but it wasn't until about 5 years into their existence as a major-label band that I got around to seeing them play live. And I was hooked. Their albums are good southern rock with a bit of gospel/blues thrown in in places, but only once I heard them play live did I really like them. They're all great musicians and the band can really play, plus they know how to put on a good show with the video screens, lights, etc. This 2-CD Live At The Woods album captures the audio of their live show really well and features some of the best songs of their first 5 albums. Many songs run 5 or 6 minutes long with the band jammin' and rockin' the crowd. On occasion, lead singer Bear Rinehart shares a bit about the song before they perform it, and it's meaningful and doesn't get too old on repeated listens. Needtobreathe is a really good band, and this live recording is just as good as their studio albums, in my opinion. I always enjoy when they come to town, but this album is the next best thing.
