  • Bio

    .... .. .. .. Having performed across the Southeast since their formation in 2001, Memphis-based Altered has been captivating audiences wherever they go. Offering a unique style that blends pure and passionate modern Gospel music with strong overtones of Memphis-bred rock and roll, Altered’s music inspires listeners to engage in uninhibited worship of the Almighty God. “Their songs have uncommon depth and their musical skills are excellent - an unusual combination these days. Be prepared to enjoy worship and express thanks to God. This is great AND Godly music,” says Dana Key, pastor of The Love of Christ Church and former front man of DeGarmo & Key. .. In 2004, when the band added lead guitar player and vocalist Memphis Jones to the original lineup of Brent Climer (lead vocals and acoustic guitar), Mike Stoker (bass guitar and vocals), and Todd Rayburn (drums), they knew they had found the formula for something special. The band had suddenly risen to a new level, both in their music and in their ministry. It quickly became clear that Altered had a gift for reaching audiences in a very personal way on and off the stage. “We want people from any and every walk of life to be able to identify with us through the music we create and perform. But we deeply believe that the purpose of our mission is to create opportunities for Godly friendships that encourage and build up believers of all ages,” says Jones. .. The band found its way into the studio in 2007 to begin recording its third full-length album. Working with Ardent Records (Todd Agnew, Skillet), they looked to create a tangible and lasting source of encouragement that fans could keep beyond the experience of the live show. During these sessions, the four members were able to capture performances that would inspire listeners on multiple levels. The result was thought provoking lyrics and passionate music that offer the listener a promise of grace and forgiveness from a loving God. .. Altered has shared the stage with such acts as TobyMac, Skillet, Rush of Fools, Leeland, The Afters, Pillar, and Kutless but they aren’t settling there. They realize there is so much more than just playing on the big stage. For Altered, the most important issue is connecting relationally with a body of Christ-followers to join in worship and lift up the name of Jesus Christ. .. .. .......... .. .. .......... .... .......... ..for the "Altered Friends" banner, copy and paste the following:.. .......... ...... ...... ................ ...... ................ ...... ................ ...... ................ ...... ................

    Hey guys, thank you thank you thank you. I was having the worst day ever at work today (even had thoughts of shooting the boss j/k). Finally I was able to put my headphones on and there you were putting me in check. After replaying your album three times I was over my anger/hate (I said it was the worst day ever). So thank you for getting me where I needed to be. Rock solid for Jesus. Much love, Myra

I have not stopped listening to the last cd. I neeeeed mooooore. I wish I lived closer so I could see ya'll in person again. (does this classify me as a stalker?)
