Bride is an American Christian rock and metal band from Louisville, Kentucky, founded in 1983 under the name Matrix by brothers Dale and Troy Thompson.

The band is known for having significantly changed its sound over the decades. They started out with dark heavy metal, switched to bluesy hard rock in the ’90s (similar to Guns N’ Roses), and later experimented with nu-metal as well.

Bride will make their debut at Loud and Proud and are returning to Germany for us for the first time in over ten years.
