Early Life
Altman grew up in the Bronx, New York, in Riverdale. His musical talent was recognized early on, as he starred in many school musicals and claims to have charmed female classmates with "hallway serenades." At age seventeen, Altman turned pro, performing on the NYC nightclub circuit with David Yazbek as Moon Pudding, a Simon and Garfunkel-styled teen duo. At Brown University, Altman majored in political science, but focused primarily on singing college a cappella in The High Jinks and fronting Blind Dates, his rock group that released two national college radio hits. Altman continued with Blind Dates after graduating from Brown in 1984, moving from Providence to NYC in search of a record deal. The group dissolved in 1987, just as Rockapella's career began.
