MOVING : PIGEON FORGE / GATLINBURG 2 / GATLINBURG 3

Emphasis on the "rush" in Rush of Fools, considering the Birmingham, Alabama band only started performing together in October 2005. Six months later, they won the first annual Band with a Mission competition, drawing the attention of several record labels. A year after that and they're already one of 2007's buzz artists, having scored their first #1 single with "Undo" before their self-titled debut has even released. Talk about overnight success.

Deriving their name from 1 Corinthians 1:26-31, Rush of Fools shows potential for five young guys driven by music ministry. But time will tell what kind of staying power they truly have—especially once they actually record as a band.
