Alter Bridge is an American alternative metal[1]/post-grunge[1] band from Orlando, Florida, but based in Atlanta, Georgia. The band was formed in 2004 by Mark Tremonti (lead guitar, vocals), Brian Marshall (bass) and Scott Phillips (drums), all former members of Creed, with Myles Kennedy (lead vocals, rhythm guitar), formerly of The Mayfield Four.
One Day Remains (2004-2006)
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".
Blackbird (2007-present)
Alter Bridge released their second album, Blackbird on October 9th, 2007. Their first single of the album, "Rise Today", was released on July 30th, 2007. On January 2, 2008, "Watch Over You" was officially named the second single for Blackbird. After spending a short amount of time on the rock charts, "Watch Over You" was announced to being less promoted to rock charts due to being released to pop stations everywhere in the later part of April, making it the first Alter Bridge song released to pop radio. "Before Tomorrow Comes" was announced as the third single on April 1st, 2008 and is to be released to radio airplay in the later part of April.
The video for "Watch Over You" is currently in pre-production. There is also currently a duet version of the song featuring Cristina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil on the band's MySpace.
