About Us

Ransomed began as a bunch of guys who enjoyed playing acoustic instruments and shared an appreciation for gospel bluegrass music. Over time the band got asked to do a few small gigs and eventually it became more than just a living room jam session. There are numerous people who have come and gone as life brought changes and the current members are listed below.

Our Mission

To encourage believers and point unbelievers to Jesus Christ by presenting the Gospel through song.  We want the songs we sing to share God's love and ultimately the salvation that comes through Jesus.
