needtobreathe


We filmed needtobreathe the other day and it was amazing. I knew that the band would be interesting in that they seem to be completely sidestepping the Christian industry but I way underestimated them. Virtually everything about these guys are unconventional, first off they are from Possum Kingdom, SC where they all met and went to school. I was also surprised to find that not only did the singer, Bear, play college football for Furman university, but he holds numerous school records and received several awards for excellence. Anyway it turns out that Bear and his brother Bo, the guitar player, were preacher’s kids and pretty much grew up around Christian rock. They had a ton of great stories and didn’t hold back at all when talking about the genre as a whole. After the interview we (being myself, Ash and Paul) raided the show’s catering. We devoured everything that wasn’t nailed down. During the feeding frenzy, we got to talk to Matt and Mark from Sanctus Real, who we had interviewed about a month prior. Good times.

That BBQ was awesome, too bad Sanctus ate all the "angry" sauce before we got to it. Squatty pops rule...
