Alter Bridge

Back in 2004, four lifelong musicians got together down in Florida. Even though they had traveled separate paths, similar lessons learned, wisdom earned, and dues paid united these gentlemen—Myles Kennedy [vocals, guitar], Mark Tremonti [guitar, vocals], Brian Marshall [bass], and Scott Phillips [drums]—as Alter Bridge. Over theensuing two decades, the band endured countless trials and tribulations, defied every odd, and rose to the head of the pack as a hard rock juggernaut, cementing a singular legacy by selling out arenas, gathering nearly 1 billion streams, inciting international acclaim, and quietly attracting a diehard audience. Beginning with the Top 5 entry of 2004’s gold-certified One Day Remains, the band have scored six consecutive Top 20 debuts on the Billboard200. Among a myriad of highlights, Guitarist Magazineapplauded “Blackbird” for the “Greatest Guitar Solo of All Time,” the ABIIIsingle “Isolation” vaulted to #1 on the BillboardMainstream Rock Chart, 2013’sFortressreceived rare perfect scores from KERRANG!and Total Guitar, and Walk The Skyshook the Top Rock Albums Chart at #1.

Plus, the latter LP garnered praise from American Songwriter, Guitar World, and Loudwire, while Billboardchristened them“one of America’s premiere hard rock quartets.” Channeling the same hunger, theband continue to push themselves on their self-titled eighth full-length offering, Alter Bridge[Napalm Records]. It embodies everything they’re known for such as the precise riffs, towering hooks, and solos that practically break guitar strings as they burst through the clouds.
