Lines & Circles is the third studio album released by American boy band O-Town, and the first to be released by the band since their reunion as a four-piece in 2011. The album was recorded over the course of three years, with a number of writers and producers, including Ryan Tedder.[1]
The album was initially due for release on August 3, 2014, but was delayed by three weeks to August 25, due to final touches being made to the production. The band released a mock video on YouTube which claimed the reason for the delay was due to band member Erik Michael Estrada changing the cover art to resemble the cover for the single "Anaconda" by Nicki Minaj.[2] The lead single from the album, "Skydive", was released on July 27, 2014,[3] after being pushed back from the initial release date of June 19, 2014.[4]
Background
The band officially reformed as a four-piece in 2011, without original band member Ashley Parker Angel. Angel declined a return to the group, despite being approached by more than two of the band members. The band released an official statement which said that they "understood Ashley's decision", and "will continue as a band without his input", and "wish him all of the best in his future ventures". The band later announced the album's release date to be August 4, 2014 in a video via their official YouTube account.[4]
