Finger Eleven will return with their first album in five years this July. The group will release “Five Crooked Lines” through The Bicycle Music Company/Concord on July 31st. A video for the first single, “Wolves And Doors“, can be seen below. Dave Cobb (Rival Sons, Jason Isbell) produced the outing, with frontman Scott Anderson saying of the title:
“For me it’s symbolic of fortune and luck and how fragile those things are. In one instance you’ve got five crooked lines, which in one position is just a heap of bent sticks. But in the right way, they make a star, which is the most glorious shape there is.”
Session drummer Chris Powell handled the studio drumming for the effort. A permanent drummer has yet to be announced. Immediate touring plans for the group include:
