Alter Bridge Tickets – Alter Bridge UK Tour

Alter Bridge is an American rock band based in Orlando, Florida. The band was formed in 2004 by then-former members of Creed, Mark Tremonti (lead guitar, vocals), Brian Marshall (bass), and Scott Phillips (drums), with Myles Kennedy (lead vocals, lead and rhythm guitar), formerly of The Mayfield Four. Kennedy, Tremonti, Phillips and Marshall started a new band and soon after juggling a few names, settled on the moniker Alter Bridge, which was named after a bridge in Detroit near Tremonti’s home on Alter Road. The bridge led to a bad side of town and the neighborhood children were not allowed to cross because of this. Thus, according to Tremonti, the name of the band symbolizes going over into the unknown and starting something new.

 

Alter Bridge released their debut album, One Day Remains, on August 10, 2004 along with their first single “Open Your Eyes”, which was followed by “Find The Real” and “Broken Wings”. “Find The Real” was used as theme music to the WWE Royal Rumble 2005. The song “Metalingus” has been used since late 2004 as the theme song for WWE superstar Edge. The album, which was certified Gold by the RIAA, was released by Wind-Up Records. After the release Alter Bridge soon split from the label, and after numurous discussions with different record companies, they settled in with Universal Republic for the sophomore release.

 

Alter Bridge also performed live at the 2005 MLB Home Run Derby. They also recorded an instrumental track for Total Guitar magazine called “Ahavo Rabo Taco Salad.” The song was to be a Mark Tremonti song originally but the rest of Alter Bridge soon got involved.

 

They finishing up the final leg of the One Day Remains tour in mid-2006, Alter Bridge started recording their second album. In 2007, with Universal Republic, Alter Bridge released their second album, Blackbird, on October 9, 2007. The first single from the album, “Rise Today”, was released on July 30, 2007. On January 2, 2008, “Watch Over You” was officially named the second worldwide single for Blackbird, the third single being “Ties That Bind.” After spending a short amount of time on the rock charts, “Watch Over You” was released to pop stations everywhere in the later part of April, making it the first Alter Bridge song released to pop radio as well as to rock stations. “Before Tomorrow Comes” was announced as the fourth single on April 1, 2008.

 

The video for “Watch Over You” was released in mid-September 2008. A new version of the video, using clips from VH1′s Celebrity Rehab, was released later that month, used to promote the series. There is also currently a duet version of the song featuring Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil on the Alter Bridge’s MySpace.

 

Also, Alter Bridge shot their first live DVD in Amsterdam. Daniel Catullo of Coming Home Productions, who has worked with artists such as Godsmack, Nickelback, and the Smashing Pumpkins, produced the DVD. A new MySpace page for an upcoming live DVD was created. It was later revealed by director Dan Catullo that four versions of Live from Amsterdam will be released, the first of which was released on August 4, and was a single disc-only version sold exclusively at venues during the Creed tour. Lead singer Myles Kennedy has issued an apology to the fans for the delay on his MySpace page and the Alter Bridge’s official website. The DVD has since been delayed by the band’s record label several times and does not currently have a release date.

 

After writing lyrics through most of 2009, their third tentatively titled Alter Bridge III was recorded in February and March 2010, mixing is due to begin in mid-April. It was also annouced that Michael Baskette, who produced Blackbird, will be producing this album. A blog entry displays a picture of the board where the band has written down various titles and other sections of the album. Alter Bridge III, made known through Mark Tremonti’s Twitter, has a tentative release date of September 2010.

 

Tremonti has also collaborated with comedian Larry the Cable Guy and helped co-produce several songs the 2004 Submersed album In Due Time, including the song “Flicker,” which features Tremonti on guitar.

 

Alter Bridge consists of the instrumental members of Alter Bridge with singer Scott Stapp. They released two studio albums: My Own Prison (1997), Human Clay (1999) before Marshall left in 2000 to be replaced by touring bassist Brett Hestla. Afterwards came Weathered (2001) with Mark Tremonti handling bass before the band disbanded in 2004. The original members of Creed reunited in 2009 for a new album Full Circle (2009) and corresponding tour. The band will be embarking on a world tour in summer of 2010 with more albums to come.
