altarred (altar red)
AltarRed is a Christian rock band based out of Sierra Vista, Az (about 70 miles southeast of Tucson). We came together to change the city we live in, one heart at a time. Our mission is to fulfill the "Great Commission" by going out and making disciples for Jesus Christ.Band/artist history
I started writing Christian about 5 years ago when I became born-again. I also picked up a guitar and decided to learn how to play. I sang with a church worship team, and eventually became a worship leader for the Youth Group at my church. I wanted to flesh out the songs I'd been writing, so I made friends with some musicians at my church, and we began playing. After going through two drummer changes, the loss of two guitar players(one of whom is now the band's drummer, as well as a solo artist himself)the band is finally able to concentrate on original material, and we are ready to "ROCK."Have you performed in front of an audience?We play live at our church mostly. We have played for outreach events in our local city park, as well as in other towns in and out of our area. We have also played at a battle of the bands in the earliest stage of the bands development. We didn't win the battle, but our lead singer did win for best vocalist.
Your musical influences
My biggest influences are Creed, Metallica, Kutless, Pillar, Third Day, and lots of others too numerous to name. The guys in the band have various influences, as well, but mostly rock.What equipment do you use?
Gibson, Epiphone, Martin sixes. Tama and Pearl kits. Triton keys. Peavey bass amps and guitars. Boss and Line 6 effects and amps. And so on.Anything else?
If you're gonna rock... rock for a reason. He is the reason!!! Jesus Christ!chaschl's station

I liked this song. It was basic, but full of energy. I thought the use bell and the eerie voice pad gave the song a dynamic that complex chord changes wouldn't be able to accomplish.
Because it's a basic chord progression, millions of listeners and start-up bands will be able to play this song. It's a PLUS for Altar Red!All comments (2)
