The Alternates are an indie/experimental rock band from North Hollywood California and have been playing together for four years. The five members of the band are nineteen years old and formed the group when they all attended The Sherman Oaks Center for Enriched Studies, a magnet school in the San Fernando Valley. Spencer Livingston handles the lead vocals and shares lead guitar duties with Tristan Esmundo. Kevin Solis plays the bass guitar along with his twin brother, Erwin on drums. Giving the band an added explosive punch is Matt Walker who doubles up on drums and various percussion instruments. The band’s original songs are a communal effort with Spencer providing the lyrics. In 2008, the Alternates were one of the winners in BB King’s Battle of the Bands. They have been building a loyal fan base having played to packed houses at The Whiskey A Go Go, The House Of Blues, Theater Theatre, BB Kings Blues Club, The Oxygen Lounge, The Verity Room, The Aura Nightclub, The Aqua lounge, The Forbidden City, The Cobalt Cafe and many other places in the San Fernando Valley. -“As long as we are alive we are The Alternates and we will continue making music”
