Combining grit with melody, Chicago-based retro hard rockers Altered Root produce a unique blend of relatable singer-songwriter style storytelling with a heavy edge. Influenced by multi-generational genre-defining bands like Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Pearl Jam, and stoner rock artists like All Them Witches tied together with lyrical concept masters Pink Floyd, The Who, and Rush. The band will release it’s debut double-LP, Drone, in 2025. Singles to precede.
