Zug in the beautiful and laid back Switzerland, where not too much is going on except the breathtaking view on the lake and one of the lowest tax rates in the world, there Stefano (Saint) Paolucci (guitar & vocals) started the Indierockband REDEEM in 2003, with Pascal Münger (bass) joining. They started to write a couple of songs, in which Stefano's unique voice developed to a real feast for the ears.

In January 2004 the band decided to record their first demo, which only took 2 days. Most of it was recorded live, but with various drummers. Soon the demo was sent to several record-labels in Germany and Switzerland. The feedback was very positive and REDEEM very quickly got some offers from Labels in Germany. After their first steps in the music business REDEEM recorded an album with producer Tommy Vetterli (ex- CORONER, guitar) at the Newsound-Studio, Zurich. After the album "Eleven" (tribute to Pearl Jam's TEN) was finished, a contract with record-label PointMusic Munich followed. "Eleven" was released in October 2006 in Germany and Switzerland and get a Re-Release in March 2008 with the German Distributor ALIVE.

Critics brim over with enthusiasm for it and you can be curious about it, where the way will lead to. At the End of 2007 Simon Steiner joined and the band benefits from his powerful Drumming. REDEEM's first single "Alive" as well as the 2nd single "Time" had high rotation on many Swiss radio stations, and slowly but surely they conquer the airplay-charts. Additionally VIVA Switzerland supports the three guys with massive video rotation. Last summer the band toured across Switzerland, partly as support of bands like "Gotthard", "Magnum" and "+44". Also they played big outdoor festivals like "Rockfest" with Alice Cooper or "Jazzfestival Montreux".

In March of 2008 REDEEM supported Chris Daughtry on his German tour. On January 2008 REDEEM signed a Publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing in Berlin and are currently working on the second album with Franz Plasa (Nena, Falco) in Hamburg and with Steve Power (Robbie Williams, Joe Cocker) in London.

In October of 2008 REDEEM had the honor to support the platin-selling US-Band 3 DOORS DOWN on their European tour through Germany, Netherlands and Switzerland.

In 2009 REDEEM decided to finish their second album "999".
