David Zach at the Aledo Opera House -- November 16.

Sunday, November 16, 6 p.m.

Aledo Opera House, 108 SE Second Avenue, Aledo IL

Known as the lead vocalist, rhythm guitarist, and keyboard player for Remedy Drive, the Nashville-based rock band with roots in Nebraska, David Zach brings his national tour to the Aledo Opera House on November 16, his ensemble famed, for the last 10 years, for using their music to shine a light on human trafficking and releasing a trilogy of counter-trafficking-themed albums.

Zach has accompanied several counter-trafficking organizations on their mission. He uses covert gear to gather evidence of trafficking and collaborates with authorities to dismantle the criminal networks responsible for these heinous acts. Thanks to their efforts, more than 2,800 survivors of trafficking have been rescued, and over 1,700 traffickers have been arrested. The Remedy Drive fanbase and community help support these operations by funding them.

Remedy Drive is committed to promoting the restoration and rehabilitation of trafficking survivors by sourcing all their merchandise from organizations specializing in these areas. The band's music centers on the theme that ordinary individuals can play extraordinary roles in the pursuit of freedom and justice. Remedy Drive's music, meanwhile, has been featured on NBC, SpeedTV, and VH1, among others. Their song "Daylight" was featured in the movie The Perfect Summer, while "Hope" was used in a 2009 Winter Olympic commercial. "Stand Up" was also featured in the trailer for the Gerard Butler film Chasing Mavericks, and played during game days at the Green Bay Packers’ stadium.

David Zach and his band bring their tour to Aledo on November 16, the concert begins at 6 p.m., and more information and tickets are available by calling (309)628-0156 and visiting AledoOperaHouse.com.
