Backstage at 2000trees: ALT BLK ERA on Diversity, Inspiration and Life on the Road

We caught ALT BLK ERA at 2000trees Festival to talk about everything happening with the band, from their journey so far to the ideas and values that continue to shape their music.

They opened up about their mission to create a more inclusive space within the alternative scene, sharing their own experiences from the early days of their journey when the scene felt far less diverse. The band also discussed the importance of representation and how they hope their work can help others feel seen, welcomed and inspired to find their own place within the community.

The conversation also explores the sounds, artists and experiences that have influenced ALT BLK ERA’s identity as a band. They reflect on finding their voice, developing their unique style and the process of building something that feels authentic to them while continuing to push boundaries within the scene.

Of course, we also chatted about life on the road, with the band sharing some of the funniest stories, unexpected moments and memories that have come from touring. From the highs of performing live to the experiences that have brought them closer together, ALT BLK ERA give us an insight into the journey behind the band and what comes next.
