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.
