Christian band NEEDTOBREATHE have started a new video series called "Live Room Sessions" and the first video up, is for the song "State I'm In."

"The Live Room sessions were recorded in Studio A at the infamous Ocean Way Recordings (Los Angeles, CA) earlier this year, the same room The Beach Boys, Frank Sinatra, Radiohead, Tom Petty and more used before us," wrote the band on their site, "Despite the fact that we were coming off of a long break from playing music together, we knew that the opportunity to record at Ocean Way was something we would regret passing up. In retrospect, this session represents a landmark for NEEDTOBREATHE. This is the band getting our mojo back, right in time for the release of Rivers In the Wasteland."

The band will be releasing a new session weekly, until mid-August, July 10 (The Heart), July 17 (Wasteland), July 24 (Difference Maker), July 31 (Outsiders), August 7 (Devil's Been Talkin'), and August 14 (Something Beautiful).

"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," they wrote.
