Alter Bridge is a hard rock band whose sound is an intermixing of 1970s classic rock and contemporary hard rock. It was formed by the ex-members Creed, Brian Marshall (bassist), Scott Phillips(drummer) and Mark Tremonti (guitarist) after singer Scott Stapp called it a day on that, and Myles Kennedy (lead vocals, guitar, and formerly of The Mayfield Four) came in to sing. Alter Bridge released their debut album One Day Remains in 2004, with the first single "Open Your Eyes". The release of their next album is planned for 2007.

Lead guitarist Mark Tremonti said of the first record that he would finally get to show his talent, and many of the songs indeed have solos or complicated note-riddled sections.

There is more of a rock 'n roll feel to the band when compared with Creed. Many of the tracks start off with a guitar introduction, leading in the rest of the band similarly to the previous Creed songs. The singer Myles Kennedy adds a definite change to the band, however. As opposed to the former baritone Scott Stapp, Kennedy is a tenor singer, giving more of a cutting edge type feel.


Alter Bridge does not prefer to think of themselves as Creed with a new singer, but as a new band entirely, following a completely different path. The name "Alter Bridge" comes from a bridge in Mark's childhood. That bridge is located on the controversial Alter Road, at the intersection of Korte, which forms the border between the city of Detroit, Michigan and the city of Grosse Pointe Park, Michigan—a boundary which he, as a child, was strictly forbidden to cross. That line of abrupt demarcation also represents a sign of enigma.
