Alter Bridge burst onto the music scene in 2004 with the release of their gold-selling debut, ‘One Day Remains‘. In 2007, the band released ‘Blackbird‘, the album that elevated the band’s profile worldwide. The epic solo in the title track ‘Blackbird‘ was voted “Greatest Guitar Solo Of All Time” by Guitarist Magazine.
‘ABIII‘ was released in 2010 and the single ‘Isolation‘ gave the band their first #1 single. In 2013, the band reached an elevated creative and critical plateau with ‘Fortress‘. It bowed at #12 on the Billboard Top 200, moving over 30,000 copies first-week and earning unanimous tastemaker praise. The record garnered perfect scores from Total Guitar and KERRANG! as well as acclaim from Billboard, The Guardian, Loudwire, Ultimate Guitar, and many more.
In between sold out tours in Europe and North America, the guys appeared on VH1 and graced the cover of Classic Rock Magazine who labeled ‘Fortress‘, “The best thing they’ve ever done,” while Eddie Trunk called it, “A top 10 album of the last 10 years.” Alter Bridge has appeared on The Tonight Show and Jimmy Kimmel Live and their music has been used by the WWE, Major League Baseball and NASCAR to name a few.
‘The Last Hero‘ was just named one of Revolver Magazine’s Top 20 Albums of 2016 and Alter Bridge won Best Rock Band, Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song (“Show Me A Leader”) in the 6th Annual Loudwire Music Awards.
