The Redemption has changed their name to Silverstar. For info, please visit www.myspace.com/silverstarpdx

The Redemption formed in the summer of 2003 in Portland, Oregon. Playing a diverse musical spectrum of modern rock styles, the band has often been compared to Alice in Chains, Incubus, Live, and Floater. With melodic breakdowns and catchy choruses, delivering everything from hard-edged heavy rock to powerful and gripping acoustic songs, The Redemption is a modern rock powerhouse taking the Portland music scene by storm.

In April of 2004, the band released their four-song demo EP and began playing shows regularly in and out of Portland. Small, empty clubs gave way to headlining shows, where the band would play their crowd favorites such as "Statue" and "Hollow Days" to fans at packed-out venues, all the while endlessly rehearsing and writing new material. The band has played many of the best clubs in Portland, and has shared the stage with several well-known local and national acts, including Manntis, SmoochKnob, and members of Everclear. The Redemption’s single “Hollow Days” has received airplay on local radio station MAX910 and The Rick Emerson Show.

The Redemption’s full-length debut CD was released on April 7, 2006 to nationwide distribution. The band will be touring and promoting the album across the Northwest, amassing their ever-growing fanbase through their intense and atmospheric live shows, for which the band is known. The unstoppable musical force which is The Redemption intends to change the face of music across the Northwest and beyond.
