Rebirth awakens the spirit with rhythm & soul.  Numbed by the typical acoustic guitar worship frenzy, Shane Ries (son of Raul Ries, pastor of Calvary Chapel Golden Springs) is the founder and producer of this worship collaboration.  Covering worship songs, Rebirth quickly gained notoriety and success through the Calvary Chapel ministries.  Mixing styles of Jazz and Hip Hop, they bring the sound of Neo-Soul to the forefront of Christian music. With their current lineup of Sandra Stephen's (lead vocals), Shane Ries (producer & gutarist), Zach Rudluph (bass, toured with Christafari), J Michael (keyboard, toured with DC Talk, Chaka Khan, and Jon Gibson) and Gootch (drums, toured with All Together Separate, Roby Duke, Marc Ford from the Black Crowes and Ben Harper) these artist are reminiscent of great musical predecessors such as Alicia Keys, Angie Stone, Jill Scott and other classic Motown artists.

Rebirth's first release Episode 4 quickly sold out, making them a group not to taken lightly.  Two years in the making, Rebirth releases their long awaited second CD Episode 5.  This release transcends the first with its soulful artistry; smooth melodies and contagious beats, creating the sound that is Rebirth.

Episode 5 quickly reached #7 on “The Pulse” Gospel Flave Charts, October 2004 and is frequently heard in rotation on BBC 1Xtra-DJ Fritz, DJ El Nino’s Club Charts UK, Reaction radio and K-Wave.

Rebirth continues to evolve with each release and performance.  Their lyrics provide a feeling of hope and their sound evokes a sense of freedom.  The mission of Rebirth is to edify the church and be a light to those who are lost.  “.....You shall be my witness both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and
Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.” (Acts 1:8)
