RTZ (stands for Return to Zero) was an American rock band that featured Boston band members Brad Delp and Barry Goudreau. The band was formed in 1989 and disbanded in 1994.
RTZ began as a collaboration between Boston members Brad Delp and Barry Goudreau around 1989. The original 1987 demo of "Face The Music" (featuring Fergie Frederiksen on vocals) was later made available for download at BarryGoudreau.com. Goudreau and Delp were both part of the original Boston line-up and after Goudreau's departure from the band, they stayed in close contact with Delp contributing to Goudreau's solo album and also to a lesser degree on the Orion the Hunter album.
Around 1989, Delp was on hiatus from Boston and looking to get active in writing again. He contacted Goudreau about a possible collaboration and RTZ was formed. Goudreau and Delp brought in keyboardist Brian Maes who was part of the Orion the Hunter touring band, drummer Dave Stefanelli and bass player Tim Archibald. Maes and Stefanelli had previously worked with producer Nick Lowe in England and Archibald's band New Man had released an album on Epic.
Motion is needed
Push at my back
Look what we're doing
What do we lack?
If by touching, we all can agree
Nothing can stop us!
If It's not finished, don't turn around
Look what we've done
We've covered some ground
Finding a place
That's right for me
Falling through space... RTZ
Quiet and peaceful
So easy to fail
Look what we're doing
We're the head not the tail!
No matter how hard, or long it will be
We got it rolling!
When chasing the finish start at the end
There's no turning back
No curves in the bend
Time has been wasted
But now we can see
Over that hill... RTZ
Finding a place, that's right for me
