Meet Me @ The Altar Tickets

Meet Me @ The Altar is here to dismantle rock music's stereotypes riff by riff. The band-comprised of guitarist-bassist Te a Campbell, drummer Ada Juarez and lead vocalist Edith Victoria-has reignited the genre with their refreshing mix of earworm pop melodies, blazing guitar riffs, and punk attitude. Now, the band is ready to stake their claim in rock history with their debut album, Past // Present // Future, arriving via Fueled By Ramen.

The record finds the bandmates experimenting more than ever as they solidify a signature sound while also ripping apart the "nostalgia act" box they didn't ask to be placed in. Each word in the album title holds a significant meaning: "Past" pays respect to the iconic bands who've influenced them (including Paramore, Twenty One Pilots, P!NK, Demi Lovato, and Avril Lavigne). "Present" finds the band redefining what a modern-day rock band looks and sounds like, while "Future" looks ahead at how the band will impact the genre and where they might go from here.

That same year, their breakthrough hit "Garden" provided relief during the height of the pandemic with its uplifting message and reminder that it's okay not to be okay. Following the release, Meet Me @ The Altar shared 2021's Model Citizen EP featuring singles like "Feel A Thing" and "Brighter Days (Are Before Us)." Their relatable appeal has scored praise from publications like Rolling Stone, The New York Times, The FADER, NPR Music, Stereogum, NYLON and more. The band has also spent the last two years touring, sharing the stages with Green Day, Jxdn, KennyHoopla and most recently MUNA on the trio's North American tour, which saw them perform to sold-out crowds at venues like New York City's Irving Plaza and The Wiltern in Los Angeles.

One thing Meet Me @ The Altar prides itself on is its strong sisterhood, which was initially formed in 2015. Té a Campbell and Ada Juarez met via YouTube in 2015 after Campbell stumbled upon Juarez's drum cover of a Twenty One Pilots song. Despite living in different states (Florida and New Jersey, respectively), the two became fast friends and decided to start a band. After persistent auditioning, Edith Victoria (a Georgia native) joined the band in 2017.

"It's just so interesting how we met so young and we were all living completely different lives, but we have the same view and dedication on where this band can go," Te a says. "We're friends at the core ("We probably were sisters in a different life," Ada interjects). It is really easy when everyone's on the same page. We never saw this band as a hobby--we saw it as what we wanted to do in life."

"What's so cool about our dynamic is that we're just friends making music and that will always be who we are," Te a leaves off. "So everything that's happening outside of us three is awesome of course, but it's not going to change us."
