Redeemer
Country: United States of America
Genre: Hard Rock/Heavy Metal
Bill Menchen played in a rock group that he had started since getting out of high school until 1985. He felt like he had to get more serious about playing music as a Christian. He found 3 other guys to get a group going in southern California. The group was called "Redeemer". Bill played guitar and sang lead. Bill stated, "I was a terrible singer, but rock singers were hard to come by and I wasn't going to sit around and rot." It was the beginning of a long road of achievements, learning how to write and record his own style, and a long road of hard lessons. Bill independently recorded about two albums worth of material with Redeemer and played in almost every kind of church, public parks, bars, and night clubs.
