Film intimately captures the band recording their latest album
Greenwich Entertainment has acquired North American distribution rights to the Needtobreathe documentary, Into The Mystery, directed by Chris Phelps and produced in partnership with Elektra Records and Foundations Music. Greenwich will release the documentary this fall following the band’s massive 38 city tour across the United States.
Into The Mystery chronicles the unique recording of Needtobreathe’s latest album, Into The Mystery, available now. At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and without telling a soul, the band decamped to a historic house-turned-recording studio in remote Tennessee to work on new music. Over three weeks, they resided under one roof and handcrafted an album reflective of the turbulent moment that may contain the most important music of the band’s storied career. Into The Mystery offers a rare look at the collaboration of artists at the height of their creative powers who are struggling with the same fear and isolation that has affected everyone the last 16 months.
“We’re big fans of music documentaries where you get to actually watch the artist creating in the space where the record is made,” the band shares. “Getting to see an idea stretch and grow into a finished song is really inspiring, but we’ve never really let our fans see behind the curtain. Now people will get to pull up a chair and become a part of the process as we create our eighth studio album in an old house in the hills of Tennessee.”
Special guests on the project include Carrie Underwood, Switchfoot’s Jon Foreman and The Highwomen’s Natalie Hemby.
