11 Theory is an explosion of heart, craftsmanship, and pure energy - a band in which five extraordinary life journeys merge into an uncompromising rock sound.
Frontman Cris Hodges embodies Californian creativity with a Texan soul. The singer and multi-instrumentalist worked with Paramount and Sony before creating his own universe as a solo artist, blending rock, pop, and metal. With a voice somewhere between Chester Bennington and Freddie Mercury, he aims for nothing less than healing people through music.
Serguei Fedotov, a guitarist and medical professional from Finland, didn’t begin his journey on the electric guitar until he was 50 — a late bloomer with a precision-driven spirit. His songs are like surgical procedures: precise, deep, and unforgettable.
The second guitarist, Ilia “Lu” Smirnov, is his musical counterpart: a virtuoso with a jazz background and a raw rock soul. On stage since the 1990s, he delivers solos that both hurt and bring relief.
Sergey “Glam Dickens” Dik, the bassist, brings the physical power of a former athlete to the groove. Somewhere between KISS-style theatrics and metal madness, he is the backbone of the band—loud, proud, and full of attitude.
On drums, Sergey Rubtsov sets the pulse. Ever since he heard AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck,” he’s been drumming like a storm on asphalt: precise, powerful, unstoppable.
Producer Jack Eugene channels all his energy behind the mixing desk. With decades of experience and an ear as sharp as a laser, he shapes 11 Theory’s sound into a modern rock machine with soul.
Together, they create music that breaks boundaries, tears hearts open, and makes stadiums tremble—11 Theory isn’t just a band, it’s a mission: emotion in its purest form.
