    Artist History
    In the spring of 1996 Jason Overstreet had just finished his senior college recital, in which he had written and performed several a cappella songs. Impressed with his performance, his professors urged him to pursue his musical talents in the field of a cappella music. Having had previous conversations regarding a shared passion for singing, Jason got in touch with high-school and college friends Jason McKenney, Chad Krober and Matt Lusk. Together they formed a quartet and endeavored to commit to learning, writing and performing a cappella songs. Within a few short weeks of the friends getting together, Rescue was born.

    Press Reviews
    "I appreciate the blend and innovation emanating from this accapella group... I hope they will continue to pursue their ministry ... in their individual and collective talents." Larry LomaxSpirit 105.3 / KCMS, Seattle ?Some of the most beautiful a cappella music I have ever heard... it?s just absolutely awesome... this is wonderful ministry.??Lee Miller, WSMR Life FM 89.1, Sarasota, FL Rescue's close harmonies are excellent, their talents very well-refined. They speak to a wide age range, and have clearly perfected the unity in Christ through their special blend of voices. Thanks guys, for your ministry, for sharing Jesus with the world through your awesome music.?Miriam Olson, Music Director for LifeTalk Radio "Great arrangements, great voices, and a great message - what more could I have asked for in a CD? It sounds great on my weekly radio show - and I've been humming a couple of the songs all week. Thanks, guys!"?Rick Alloway, General Manager, 90.3 KRNU.Facile Contemporary Christian pop, turned out with absolute precision and sincerity. Occupying a niche somewhere between Acappella and Go Fish, this male quartet shares the same knack for constructing solid melodies and flowing progressions. "You Are There" and "Quiet, Quiet" are reflective ballads, whereas "The Way, The Truth, The Life" simmers along with a slapped vocal bass and subtle fingersnaps; many of the songs have vocal percussion, but it's low profile. The arrangements are detailed and complex, creating a richly dimensional and spacious feeling...- John Neal, Primarily A cappella
