I hope to get it done because I spent a lot of time working on it and it’s a different side of me as far as the creative aspect goes. I’m proud of that record. I think it’s an honest representation of where I was at that point in my life and how I felt musically and emotionally. Hopefully, I’ll get it out there one day.” Continue reading »

This week, Alter Bridge releases Live at Wembley, a 21-song, two-DVD set complete with a documentary. A 3D version of the new DVD/Blu-ray will be released this coming summer. The melodic greats pulled out all of the stops to create the complete Alter Bridge experience, recording their Nov. 29, 2011 headline appearance at the hallowed Wembley Arena. The DVD follows the band’s successful 2009 Live From Amsterdam concert film.
Noisecreep spoke to guitarist Mark Tremonti, also a member of Creed, about the differences between the two DVDs filmed in European locales, which songs fans must watch and if the band will ever film a DVD in its native U.S. An excerpt from the chat follows below. Continue reading »
Peter Hodgson of IHeartGuitarBlog.com recently conducted an interview with Alter Bridge / Creed guitarist Mark Tremonti. An excerpt from the chat follows below.
IHeartGuitarBlog.com: What about your solo album? That’s coming out soon.
Mark: Yeah! I’ve already mixed it all. We have a mastering date with Ted Jensen, the best masterer on earth. It sounds really nice. It’s the first time I’ve ever sang on a record, so it was a good challenge for me. It’s just fun! I’m a songwriter: I have lots of stuff sitting around that will never see the light of day unless I do something with it! So…
IHeartGuitarBlog.com: As a singer, have you always been a lead vocalist or is that something you had to push yourself into on this stuff? Singing lead is a lot different to doing backing vocals. Continue reading »
Creed and Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti has revealed the cover artwork of his upcoming debut solo album, All I Was, tentatively due late spring/early summer. Check it out below.
Tremonti handles all lead vocals on the CD, with additional contributions from Eric Friedman [backing vocals, guitar, bass] and Garrett Whitlock [drums].
Tremonti recently said that his upcoming solo album will be heavier than both Creed and Alter Bridge — and contain even more lead guitar solos than he does with either group. Speaking with ARTISTdirect,Tremonti explained, “It’s a dynamic record. It’s probably heavier than either Creed or Alter Bridge, but it’s still melody-driven. Most of the stuff is more up-tempo and heavy-riffing though. I had to write eleven solos for this record so it took me a long time. There’s lots of soloing.” Continue reading »

“The first four or five songs of any set are usually pretty nerve-wracking,” said guitarist Mark Tremonti in a statement. “Those are the tunes where we’re finding our footing and trying to get comfortable. But Wembley was different. Even with all of the cameras and the fact that we were filming and we couldn’t make any mistakes, it was fun right from the start.” Continue reading »
