MyChildren MyBride was founded in 2004 in Madison, Alabama while its members were still enrolled in high school. The group proceeded to promote home recordings every way possible, to gain exposure and a larger fan base. Original musicians were Kyle Ray, Brian Hood, Matt Hasting, and Rob Noneman. Over the years, musicians came and went, but the band was determined to find a solid member line-up.
While MyChildren MyBride was on tour with a band called Stars Are Falling, they found and recruited Robert Bloomfield. Directly after, Robert joined MyChildren MyBride as second guitarist. Upon signing a contract to Solid State Records in 2007, Robert asked full-time medical student and drummer of the band Braveheart, Joe Lengson, to join the band to play bass. Towards the culmination of summer 2008, original guitarist, Kyle Ray, was replaced by Daniel Alvarado from the band Here I Come Falling to join, just as Here I Come Falling was announcing the band's breakup. Towards the end of 2008, the original drummer, Brian Hood, decided to leave the band to start his own recording studio. He now owns 456 Recordings in Nashville, Tennessee. The band spent a year working on finding another drummer, but they did not find a permanent drummer until the beginning of 2010, when the band found Mathis Arnell of Requiem for Sirens, hailing from Geneva, Switzerland, who they invited to come to the States to play drums for the band.
Their first full-length album Unbreakable was released on Solid State Records on February 26, 2008.[2][3] The album was produced by Joey Sturgis (The Devil Wears Prada) and mixed by Adam Dutkiewicz (Killswitch Engage). Directly after their Solid State debut was released, the band supported Unearth, Bury Your Dead, and As Blood Runs Black on a full East Coast tour.
The group played Cornerstone Festival 2008 and appeared on the Scream the Prayer Tour with bands such as Impending Doom, With Blood Comes Cleansing and War of Ages.
In October 2008, MyChildren MyBride decided to revolve around their Christian faith, and asked the original guitarist, Kyle Ray, to leave the band, due to his lack of faith.
In Oct–Nov 2008 the band supported Norma Jean on The Anti-Mother Tour along with Haste the Day, The Showdown, Children 18:3, and Oh, Sleeper.[citation needed]
In December 2008, they went on a tour with Stick To Your Guns, and the next month, the band went on a January and February tour with As I Lay Dying, Protest The Hero, and The Human Abstract.
A video for the song "On Wings of Integrity" was released on February 16, 2010 by the band in conjunction with Mitchell Davis with over 60,000+ hits within 18 hours.[4]
The band finished recording their new album at Glow in the Dark Studio in Atlanta, Georgia, with the help of Matt Goldman, who has worked with various artists including Underoath, The Chariot, and Copeland.[citation needed] In early 2009, they headlined the Burgers and Bowling tour with The Red Chord, Chelsea Grin, and Those Who Lie Beneath.[5]
They went on a full North American tour in 2009 supporting Parkway Drive alongside Stick to Your Guns.[citation needed]
In the summer of 2009, the band accomplished the Thrash And Burn Tour alongside DevilDriver, Emmure, Despised Icon, Veil of Maya, For the Fallen Dreams, Oceano, Periphery, and Thy Will Be Done. Later that year, they went on tour with The Acacia Strain and Impending Doom in support of August Burns Red for their album Constellations.
At the end of Spring 2010 they supported Haste the Day on their Attack of the Wolf King tour, which crossed North America. The tour also featured the Texas metalcore/deathcore band Upon a Burning Body of Sumerian Records.
The band is confirmed to directly support deathcore band, Suicide Silence for the month of October during the band's No Time to Bleed tour, which will also feature Molotov Solution, Conducting from the Grave and The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza.
The band began touring with Haste the Day again in February 2011 in support of their Farewell Tour, along with A Plea for Purging and The Chariot. In March 2011, the band toured with The Chariot in Europe.
In April 2011 guitarist Dan Alvarado decided that it was time for him to leave the band. He posted a message as a note on Facebook citing God's leading for him to go a different direction. There are no hard feelings between him and the rest of the band.[6] He was replaced by Hunter Walls.
In June 2011, The band co-headlined with Impending Doom, on the Nocturnal Alliance tour, with This or the Apocalypse, A Bullet for Pretty Boy, and The Crimson Armada.
