Bear Rinehart is the singer and co-founder of NEEDTOBREATHE, a commercially successful rock band founded in South Caroline in 2001. Known for their uplifting, spiritual music, NEEDTOBREATHE has had a string of top 10 albums (The Outsiders, The Reckoning, Rivers in the Wasteland and Hard Love) and performs in arenas and amphitheaters around the U.S. As a solo under performing under the name Wilder Woods, Rinehart takes a rootsy, Americana bent while retaining NEEDTOBREATHE's ability to move and inspire. His second album as Wilder Woods, FEVER/SKY, was released March 24 by Dualtone Records.
Wilder Woods will perform at the The Roxy in Los Angeles on May 16, Red Rocks Amphitheatre (supporting the Avett Brothers) on July 8 and the Moon River Music Festival in Chattanooga, TN, on Sept. 10.
NEEDTOBREATHE's 2023 dates includes July 12 in Myrtle Beach, SC, Aug. 13 in Fort Wayne, IN, and Sept. 8 at the Kansas State Fair.
