Bio

Alpha noise is a collaboration of musicians situated on the Kapiti Coast/Wellington in the North Island of New Zealand, who have an understanding of heavy and melodic compositions and use the basis of these fundamental elements to create a new form of alternative rock.

A blend of interesting and diverse styles that can be heard from the melodic catchy songs of the 1960's rock bands to the powerful and metal like alternative rock of the 1990's "We're pretty much the history of rock n roll, everything we grew up with is within our music.

Cormac Ferris formed Alpha Noise with Aaron and Zack at the end of 2001. The three musicians were previously in a band called Piggy. Cormac put an ad on the Rock Shop web site. requesting the assistance of a drummer. Tia replied, Alpha Noise was formed.

The four piece didn't have a name yet. After much discussion the name Alpha was agreed upon. Alpha is the Greek word for number one. When the band tried to put up a website with the URL www.alpha.cjb.net they found it was unavailable. They instead used the URL www.alphanoise.cjb.net. Tia thought Alpha Noise sounded cooler the others agreed.
