Alter.

Alter. is the creative moniker of Seattle-based artist Steven Trueba, whose independent approach to music unites hip-hop, electronic, ambient, and experimental styles. Since 2018, Alter. has cultivated a distinctive catalogue, with every release authentically written, emotionally recorded, and meticulously designed — all without the backing of a major label. This fiercely independent ethos is reflected in a prolific output, showcased in projects like the album After Alter. x (set for December 2024), as well as a steady stream of recent EPs such as Artifacts II, Key Frames, and Scattered.

As a live act, Alter. continues to bring these deeply personal and sonically adventurous tracks to new audiences. In October 2026, Alter. is slated to perform at the O2 Institute 3 in Birmingham, joining a vibrant lineup as a support act for headliner PØØLER. This commitment to delivering raw, emotionally resonant performances aligns with Alter.'s overarching philosophy: music, art and experience should be owned and shaped by the artist, offering audiences a refreshing alternative to mainstream, algorithm-driven listening.

For those seeking boundary-pushing live music, Alter. offers a uniquely authentic journey through contemporary sounds. To experience upcoming gigs, stay connected and follow Alter. — you won’t want to miss what’s next on this independent artist’s evolving path.
