Family Force 5 Announce New Line-Up As They Prepare Fourth Album

Sep 26 2013

Family Force 5 have announced their new line-up following the decision by frontman Solomon Olds to pursue other creative roles. His brother, and previously the group's drummer, Jacob Olds takes over as lead singer, with new drummer Teddy Boldt taking Jacob's place.

FF5 is working on its fourth studio album to release in 2014, and Solomon will continue to help co-write with the band as he takes time to be at home pursuing other creative roles. He performed his last show as lead vocalist last Saturday in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.

"As a family that has played together and prayed together for countless years, we know that our fans expect Family Force 5 to continuously evolve", reads a personal letter from the band to their fans.

"As of today, Solomon will be coming off the road, and Jacob will be transitioning into the position of lead singer... Solomon will remain within arms reach, as he takes time to be at home with his wife and son, while also pursuing his creative ambitions of co-writing and remixing. In addition, he will continue to be a part of FF5's songwriting team, as we are daily creating new material that could potentially blow up your stereo speakers.

Throughout the last several months, the five of us have been in Los Angeles writing and recording some of our best music to date, and we are thrilled to be moving toward the release of our fourth studio recording in early 2014. We are also proud to welcome our talented new drummer Teddy Boldt into the fold, and we look forward to hearing all of your remarks about his impressive drumming skills and his extraordinarily colorful suits."
