Why We Chose The Ransom

Posted by The Ransom

I feel like when you first decide to start a band, you have to come up with a name, something that would be catchy, that people would remember, something that would really stand out yet also tell what you are all about in a nutshell.
When we started the band scene, we went through a couple of names. One of the first bands we ever played in I came up with the name Godspeed. I was playing drums for that band, but then we went our separate ways, so I threw the idea around about using that name for us since the other band was no longer together. Then we came up with the name Ransomed. The reasoning was that we as a band were the ransomed of the Lord, we were all saved by His blood just like you are the ransomed of the Lord. After a year with that name, we decided to get a little more personal with our message and went with a name that tells what we are all about, The Ransom. It's the gift that was given for each individual, that all we had to do was accept it and we would be saved. Our name comes from Mark 10:45
