Rez

The Resurrection Band (also known as REZ) formed during the height of the Jesus People USA movement in the late '60s and early '70s, comprising vocalists Glenn and Wendi Kaiser, guitarist/keyboard player Stu Heiss, bassist Roy Montroy and drummer John Herrin. The group, which plays hard rock verging on metal, came together at a communal home in Milwaukee and began touring America in a dilapidated red bus, playing wherever they were welcomed. The first two albums -- Music to Raise the Dead and All Your Life -- were released in 1974. Sixteen albums followed, including the compilations Best of Rez (1984), Compact Favorites (1988) and Twenty Years (1992), plus in 1984, Live Bootleg. ~ John Bush, Rovi
