About Alter Bridge
Universal Republic recording artists Alter Bridge have announced the name of their forthcoming second album will be Blackbird.
Clocking in at almost eight minutes, the title track is clearly one of the masterpieces of the new album. “We felt like Blackbird was the perfect song to use as the title track for this record, lead singer/guitarist Myles Kennedy commented.
Though a majority of the album is not as dark thematically, we really hoped to draw attention to what we felt was one of the most challenging yet gratifying songs weve ever written. It was inspired by a friend of mine who passed away as the song was completed; its a story about the struggle to move on to a better place. It was my wish for him to finally find his peace.”
There are many differences between One Day Remains and the bands new album Blackbird with the most notable being the full integration of Myles Kennedy as a guitarist and songwriter. While One Day Remains was largely written before Myles came on board, this time around, it was a collaborative effort with Mark and Myles sharing the songwriting duties, while all four band members worked on the arrangements.
Its a natural evolution after three years of working together, Mark Tremonti stated. We knew Myles was an amazing singer, thats why we hired him. What we found out when we toured the first record was that hes also an incredibly gifted guitar player and songwriter, as well as a vocalist. It would have been a crime not to utilize all that talent. We wanted to use every weapon we had in our arsenal for this album.
Blackbird will be the follow up to Alter Bridges debut album, the Gold-certified One Day Remains, which peaked at #5 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart its week of release. That release featured three consecutive hits on rock radio: (Open Your Eyes, Find The Real, and Broken Wings). The first single from Blackbird Rise Today has already gotten substantial early airplay before the official add date of July 30th.
Comprised of Mark Tremonti, Scott Phillips, Brian Marshall and Myles Kennedy, three of the four members of Alter Bridge made up the 30+ million selling band Creed. The band will be hitting the road upon the release of Blackbird this fall.
