Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

We wanted to let you know we are back at work on the Pre-production today for "Alter Bridge III" after taking a break over the weekend to re-charge. If all goes according to plan, we will begin recording, starting with the drums, in Miami in about a week.

We also wanted to make you aware that a new article went up on Blabbermouth stating that Slash has tracked a guitar solo for Myles' solo project (which Myles announced in his own blog last week) and it also includes a quote from Mark regarding the interest in Myles from other artists. Here is the link if you would like to check it out...


We would like to make it clear, in case there is some confusion with all the different projects we have going on, that Myles will not begin the Slash Tour until we are finished recording Alter Bridge III. Myles will then return from the Slash Tour before October, when we plan to go out on tour again, starting in Europe and the UK.

In the meanwhile, we are trying to make the best album we can so we better get back to it. We'll let you know when recording officially begins and any other new news that may pop up so check back.

Keep rocking,

Alter Bridge

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

We wanted to let all of you know that we are in the middle of Pre-production on our third album (which we are calling AB3 for now) with our producer, Michael "Elvis" Baskette. Pre-production is the process in which we bounce all our song ideas off Elvis, finalize the arrangements, and choose which songs ultimately make the album before we record.  If you would like an eyewitness report from Myles, be sure to read his blog entitled "Still in the Womb". He also breaks some news about Slash appearing on his solo project. Here is the link...


We are very excited with how the songs we wrote for our third album are turning out so far and, as of last night, we have 10 songs fully arranged. We are going to keep writing and arranging right up until we feel we are ready to record and we still have about 10 more songs that are in various stages of completion we still need to go through and finalize. The ultimate goal is to whittle it down to about 15 songs that we will end up recording. All 15 may not make the final cut on the album but we always feel it is a good idea to record a few extra songs just in case. The first day of recording is drawing closer and we will let you know when it happens in a future update.

In other news, Slash has announced on his blog that our brother in music, Myles, will be fronting Slash's Tour this spring. You can read the news here...


We are absolutely thrilled that Myles will be able to showcase his talent with one of the greatest and most influential guitarists in rock music today. After Myles finishes laying down the vocal tracks for our third album, he will join Slash for this tour and then will re-join us in time for our own planned tour of Europe in October. We support Myles 100% in his upcoming road adventures with Slash and we're looking forward to hearing his upcoming album.

But right now, finishing the pre-production on our third album is very important to us so we are going to get back to it. Stay tuned for further updates and please know that we read all the comments that are left for us so fire away.

Keep rocking,

Alter Bridge

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,
 
We’ve been working hard over the past few months, writing pretty much non-stop and trying to make our third album the best that it can be. We’ve taken a huge step in the right direction by enlisting the talented Michael “Elvis” Baskette to produce our third album. For those that do not know… “Elvis” was the producer on our last album, Blackbird, so we already have an amazing working relationship with him. “Elvis” has spent the last few days with us doing pre-production work. He is leaving soon but will be back with us again for more pre-production in a week, after we write some more material. Here is a photo of all of us together last night…




Right now, we have about 17 songs finished with several more in various stages of being put together. We’re not sure how many songs will actually make the album but we promise you only the best of the best. We plan to get right back to the writing today and we will not stop until we are satisfied. We are getting closer to the recording process but we feel we are not quite ready yet. There are still a few exciting musical ideas we have yet to explore.
 
We still hope to have this album finished by the end of the summer and we are looking at October to start touring. From what we hear from management, Europe will be our first stop and we can not wait to get back. We’re also very excited to tour the USA and other places throughout the world that we have not been yet and when we have more info on when and where this will occur, we will let you know.
 
But for now, we are solely focused on the writing and we need to get back to it. So we’ll leave you with a few photos of us jamming in our rehearsal space. Spread the word that we will be back with a vengeance, later in 2010!
 
Keep Rocking,
 
Alter Bridge

Want to own one of my PRS guitars and donate money to a good cause? 

I have teamed up with award winning and New York Times Best Seller List author Patrick Rothfuss and donated one of my PRS SE guitars for charity auction. The auction ends on January 15th so time is short.

Peace out,

Mark Tremonti

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

We just wanted to check in and let you know that the writing sessions for our third album have been coming along amazingly, so far. We feel that we have five songs that are "album ready" at this point, and we are in the process of figuring out several more. In fact, there are many song ideas we have yet to touch on. So, all in all, we are very happy with the progress thus far. We plan on writing through the weekend, at which point we will halt things to spend time with our families over the Holiday Season. After New Year's Day, we plan to get right back into Mark's studio to continue writing.

Speaking of the Holiday Season, we would like to highlight all of our products that would make great gifts and that will help spread the word about Alter Bridge. The best place to start is our first two albums, One Day Remains and Blackbird, which you should be able to get just about anywhere that sells CD's. Digitally, they are available on iTunes but we will include Amazon.com links for those of you who just want regular MP3's.
Here is the direct link to buy our first album, One Day Remains...

Here is a direct link to buy our second and latest album, Blackbird...

Our new DVD: Alter Bridge - Live From Amsterdam, is only available online at Amazon.com. All our fans in the USA and Canada can order it here...

All our fans everywhere else in the world can get the DVD only through Amazon UK. This DVD works on EVERY player. Here is the link...
 
Also, do not forget to visit our friends at www.fret12.com, where you can purchase exclusive items such as Mark’s Instructional DVD and some of the shirts that we wear on-stage each night.
 
And lastly, if you are looking for some of our official merch to give, here is the online store...
 
We hope all of you have an awesome Holiday Season and we are looking forward to 2010, when we will be back with a vengeance with a new album and a bunch of live shows. We will update you again when we continue our writing after the Holidays. Until then, we  will leave you with this photo taken last night of us in Mark's studio.

Keep rocking,

Alter Bridge

Rock radio station KSHE, in St. Louis, is reporting that Mark Tremonti has given them an idea of what to expect of Alter Bridge’s third album, which is being written right now….

”Well, me and Myles, we come from different places, so if it was completely up to me, it would be a much heavier, riffier, just kick-ass fun to play record, with the best melodies that you could fit into a more progressive sound. I think that’s always been our goal, is to have the music be as interesting and orchestrated as possible without losing the song. So it’s finding that balance.”

This just in from www.alterbridge.com...

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

Our own Mark Tremonti recently spoke to Gary Graff from Billboard.com and revealed to the world that he and Myles Kennedy have now regrouped in Florida to continue writing on the third album. He also stated that the band hopes to be ready to hit the studio in February. His plan is to have Alter Bridge start touring in Europe in October, with North American dates expected in late 2010 and 2011, followed by European festival appearances that summer.

“Me and Myles need to get on the same page with our ideas, and once we’re there we’ll realize what kind of work load we have,” Tremonti says. “We don’t have much time to spare. We feel like we’re cutting it really close, but I feel like I’m very well organized at this point, which makes me feel better.”

Myles Kennedy also confirmed that writing with Mark has begun in Florida in a blog originally posted on his Myspace page. He also talks about the progress on his solo project. We have re-posted his blog so you can read it, here in the blog section of alterbridge.com.

That is all for now as the time for writing a third album is here!

Keep rocking,

Alter Bridge

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

Lots of news this week so let’s get started. First, we are happy to announce that all of our International fans can now pre-order our first DVD: Alter Bridge - Live From Amsterdam. You can check out previews by going to our Myspace page at www.myspace.com/alterbridge and watching the embedded videos. You can even click on some of them and watch them on Youtube in HD. Speaking of Youtube… make sure to check out the rare, live videos we have up on our channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/AlterBridge571.

The only place our International fans can pre-order the DVD is from Amazon UK. The DVD should play on any player. The release date for our DVD is set for next Monday, December 7th. Here is the direct link for all International fans to Pre-order http://www.amazon.co.uk/Alter-Bridge-Amsterdam-Amazon-Exclusive/dp/B002RKD8CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1259606852&sr=8-1

Remember, the USA and Canada version of the DVD is being sold now, only at Amazon.com. Here is the direct link to purchase… http://www.amazon.com/Alter-Bridge-Live-Amsterdam/dp/B002RKD8CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1259608073&sr=8-1

Now that the business is out of the way we can get to the information. Myles recently posted on his Blog about his solo project and the upcoming “Alter Bridge III” writing session. You can read his blog entitled: “I’m in the studio making my record”, on his Myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/myleskennedyofficial.

Mark also posted a message to his fans on the www.fret12.com forums. He talks about what he has been up to recently. Please feel free to sign up and participate in the community there. Many musicians have joined the fold, so to speak.

Lastly, Mark recently did a long, honest interview with www.ultimate-guitar.com that encompasses everything that has occured in the last year entitled: “I Always Want to Create Music and Do the Best I Can”. You can read the full interview here… http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/interviews/interviews/mark_tremonti_i_always_want_to_create_music_and_do_the_best_i_can.html

We’re all looking forward to next week, when Myles, fresh from recording his solo project, comes down to Florida (and Brian comes up from Costa Rica) and we can all continue the writing process on our third album. We’ll be working on that until the holiday season arrives, at which point we will spend some time with our families. We’ll keep you updated once the writing process continues, next week.

Oh, and we saw a request from Activision to have our song “Ties That Bind” used on a downloadable package for the upcoming video game, Guitar Hero 6, so look for that in the future.

 Keep rocking,

 Alter Bridge

Hello Alter Bridge Nation,

We are pleased to announce that full band writing sessions for our third album will resume in the first week of December when Myles will fly down to Florida. We hope to get the writing done by the end of January so that we may start recording in February. Mark is hard at work writing songs (he never stops) for the upcoming album as we speak. We are very excited to meet up in December and we will keep you posted when the process starts.

Right now, Myles is locked up in a recording studio until December laying down tracks for his solo project. We are all psyched to hear what our brother in music comes up with as we are sure it will be astounding. We’ll update you with more on this once Myles emerges from the studio.

For those of you who have yet to hear… Myles was tapped by none other than Slash to co-write and sing a song on Slash’s upcoming solo record. We know it was a dream come true for Myles as GNR was very influential to him. Here is a link to read some news on this…

http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=129958

We also want to thank all of you fans for spreading the word and keeping our Live In Amsterdam DVD in the Top Ten on Amazon.com in Music DVD’s. We do not have any new news to report on when it will be available worldwide or for digital download, other than the fact that our management says they are working on it. You never know how long all this legal stuff will take, so our advice is to take advantage of the Amazon opportunity. Here is a direct link to purchase (the DVD should work on all computers)…
 
http://www.amazon.com/Alter-Bridge-Live-Amsterdam/dp/B002RKD8CS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1257976072&sr=8-1

The only other news that we would like to convey is that we will be back with a vengeance in 2010. Don’t listen to what anyone else says. We are all very supportive of each other in all the projects we do, but never doubt that Alter Bridge is our soul. The plan is to have a new album out for you fans in the second half of 2010. We will tour again as soon as we get the album out.
Thank you, again, for being patient while Mark, Brian, Myles and Flip all work on different projects.

We’ll let you know how the writing is coming along once we all get together to work out ”ABIII” (Working Title) in the first week of December. Until then, we hope you enjoy our DVD!

 Keep rocking,

 Alter Bridge
