Ten Foot Pole returns with new album

Posted in Bands on July 13, 2014

Ten Foot Pole has announced their return to action with a new record to be released in 2015 on Cyber Tracks. First, the band is planning a mini tour of the US and Canada.

"It's too early in the process to limit or define what's going to come out, but I think it's safe to say that fans can expect candid, sincere, honest and outrageous lyrics matched with some aggressive music, a few well-placed stops, and generous helpings of pick slides and feedback," founder Dennis Jagard says of the new material. The band also features drummer Chris Dalley (Pulley, Implants), bassist Chris Del Rio (Implants), and guitarist Keith "DJ" Divel (Swindle, Red Devil Squadron).

Ten Foot Pole was first formed in southern California in 1983.
