– NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Word Records band Remedy Drive set the standard for all future first-time artists releasing projects at Christian retail this year, selling more than 4500 albums this summer during its debut week.
“The debut week for Remedy Drive represents years of work that the band has put into its ministry, and we are glad that its music and message has resonated with fans,” says Word Entertainment Chief Operating Officer Rod Riley. “We congratulate Remedy Drive on its exceptional debut and look forward to more great things from the band in the months ahead.”
Remedy Drive frontman David Zach adds, “We feel really honored and humbled that every day a few more people around the country are finding out about this band from Nebraska that’s been making music independently for the last five years. We are excited to take a new album out on the road.”
Remedy Drive continues to support the release of Daylight Is Coming with their current tour. The band will visit more than 25 cities nationwide, including its native Lincoln, Neb. as well as major markets Chicago, Indianapolis, and Houston.

Produced by 2008 GMA Dove Awards Producer of the Year Ian Eskelin, Daylight Is Coming showcases Remedy Drive’s high-energy, piano-driven rock sound. The band’s debut music video, “Daylight,” was recently voted to No. 1 on TVU, a nationwide, 24/7 music video television network, and its current single “Daylight” is currently vying for adds at CHR radio.
David (vocals, keys, guitar), Philip (bass, vocals), Paul (guitar, vocals), and Daniel Zach (drums) originally began playing together in colleges around Lincoln, Nebraska. It wasn’t until 2003 that the band now known as Remedy Drive ventured outside its stomping grounds into territory spanning the Midwest and West Coast. In the last two years, Remedy Drive has performed more than 200 shows annually, including concerts at festivals, colleges, camps, conferences and churches. The band’s indie release, Rip Open the Skies (2005), has sold more than 20,000 copies to date. Keeping that pace, the band recently wrapped the spring 2008 “LifeLight Tour” with Building 429 and Bread of Stone. This summer, Remedy Drive appeared at major festivals including Spirit West Coast Del Mar, Spirit West Coast Monterey, Crossover, Ichthus, Higher Ground, Lifelight and Rock the Light.
