The Artificials is a project started by former Erra guitarist Alan Rigdon. The Artificials actually began in 2007 with Aaron Surratt, a life long friend. They experimented with every source of inspiration with the likes of bands like Glassjaw, Misery Signals, and Hopesfall. The Artificials reformed after Alan departed from Erra in 2014. The group now consists of Alan Rigdon and Sarah Rigdon.
