Altman grew up in the Riverdale neighborhood of the Bronx, New York. 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 New York City nightclub circuit with David Yazbek as Moon Pudding, a Simon & Garfunkel-styled teen duo. At Brown University, Altman majored in political science, but focused primarily on singing college a cappella with 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 New York City in search of a record deal. The group dissolved in 1987, just as Rockapella’s career began.

Rockapella began its career humbly, performing on street corners in New York City while Altman still focused primarily on his Blind Dates work. The group’s repertoire consisted of a mix of barbershop arrangements and a cappella renditions of classic doo-wop pieces. As the group grew in experience and Altman honed his vocal arranging skills, they began to focus less on oldies and barbershop, and more on contemporary rock music. A dinner party performance for television personality Kathie Lee Gifford led to the group’s 1988 appearance on the ABC TV show Live with Regis and Kathie Lee. Rockapella’s performance of Altman’s signature arrangement of the calypso novelty standard “Zombie Jamboree” caught the eye of producer Gerard Brown, who invited Rockapella to perform on the PBS Great Performances TV special Spike Lee & Company – Do it A Capella, which featured established a cappella acts Take 6, Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Rockapella’s idols The Persuasions. Elektra Records released Rockapella’s live recording of “Zombie Jamboree” as a single, and the group’s recording career was launched.
