Country band from alternative city (7)

orlando

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'alternative city' is the definition.
'orlando' can be an answer for 'city' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'alternative' bit.

'country band' is the wordplay.
'country' becomes 'orland' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'band' becomes 'o' (I've seen this in other clues).
'orland'+'o'='ORLANDO'

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
