About the band
A group of local musicians makes it a habit to take their songs to a place most people try to avoid. ReLeasT is a band comprised of members of the local community who use their love of music to minister to prison inmates.
Members include Steve Collins, Vic Johns, Merry Hanson, Tim Wilson, Jeremy Kirkendall and Sean and Stephanie Stanek. The group maintains a full schedule of performances in jails and prisons around the area, including the Tecumseh State Correctional Institution and Nebraska Correctional Center for Women in York.
