Rush of Fools is a Contemporary Christian rock band from Birmingham. They are best known for their 2007 hit single Undo, which was the most played song of 2007 on Adult Contemporary Christian Music radio stations according to R&R magazine.

It was the #1 Christian song for five consecutive weeks from June 4 to July 2, 2007 on 20 The Countdown Magazine's charts. Their second single When Our Hearts Sing was the seventh most played song of 2007. The band's name was taken from the Biblical verse, 1 Corinthians 1:26-31

Starting up as a small band in Birmingham, Rush of Fools had only played for a short time before entering a contest called "Band with a Mission". Winning the contest, they received attention from record labels, including Midas Records, with whom Rush of Fools soon recorded and released their self-titled debut album.

Rush of Fools was nominated for four Dove Awards at the 39th annual GMA Dove Awards in 2008, in the categories "New Artist of the Year", "Pop/Contemporary Recorded Song of the Year" (for their song "Undo") and "Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year" (for their self-titled debut, Rush of Fools), and Song of the year (for their song Undo).
