El Ten Eleven premiere animated video for ‘Yellow Bridges’

Los Angeles based instrumental outfit El Ten Eleven are set to release their fifth studio album, Transitions, on November 6th via their own Fake Record Label.

The duo of Kristian Dunn and Tim Fogarty turned to kickstarter to fund Transitions and ended up exceeding their goal by more than four times. Kickstarter backers will be able to get their hands on the new record on September 25th.

Ahead of the album, El Ten Eleven have just dropped ‘Yellow Bridges’, the second single off Transitions. ‘Yellow Bridges’ comes backed by B-side ‘3K’.

‘Yellow Bridges’, titled after the yellow bridges in Fogarty’s hometown of Pittsburgh, has also just received the visual treatment. The pair premiered yesterday a video directed by British animator Cyriak who thanked El Ten Eleven for giving him “the long dreamed-for opportunity to make a video out of 2 twigs and a leaf”.
