2024 has been a significant year for Finger Eleven. The Juno Award-winning band, after 25 years, is currently on tour across America with Creed on the Summer of ‘99 arena tour, their long-time labelmates. Alongside the tour, Finger Eleven is actively working on their first new album in almost a decade, feeling the emergence of a major rock revival in the air.
Originally forming as Rainbow Butt Monkeys during their high school years, the band members, including Scott and Sean Anderson on vocals and bass, and guitarists James Black and Rick Jackett, felt the need for a fresh direction leading to the creation of Finger Eleven. Achieving early success with their self-titled album, produced by Johnny K and featuring the acoustic ballad “One Thing,” Finger Eleven quickly gained recognition, securing two gold and two platinum albums. Moving forward, the band embraced musical diversity with hits like “Paralyzer,” “Don’t Look Down,” “Gods of Speed,” and “Living In A Dream,” showcasing versatility and creativity in their sound. Their recent accomplishments with the cover of Pink Floyd’s “Welcome To The Machine” and the chart-topping single “Together Right” have set the stage for their upcoming album in 2025, evident in their latest preview single, “Adrenaline.” With a renewed artistic energy, Finger Eleven is poised to make a strong comeback, just in time for the anticipated rock revival.
