Josh Altman/You Army

About Me

Dont hold me down, sings lead singer Josh Altman, who is the architect, songwriter and General of You Army. The Lyric serves as a motto for the artist whose music seems aching to break out of the boundaries of popular music. Altman is determined to make You Army successful on his terms.The creative force behind You Army, Altman wrote all the songs on Believe, a five song EP of stylistically urgent and catchy rock n roll. Believe is an album of no-frills roots-rock that thrusts Altmans powerful vocals and fierce lyrics to the foreground.Altman and and his ever-changing line up of musical comrades continue to build a loyal fan base where it is common to find an audience that sings along with every song. Live, You Army comes at you full force with high-energy performance, rhythm you can feel beneath the floorboards and in your gut, a lead singer with a commanding and entrancing presence who forces you to keep your eyes locked on the stage, and a cohesive, dynamic group of musicians. You Armys Believe is rock n roll at its best: irreverent, driving, crafted without being polished, and unapologetic.But thats just the story of the songs. A great artist doesnt need a lot of hype. Pop in the CD and join the ranks.
