Firebird V11 is the thirteenth studio album by Phil Manzanera, guitarist of rock band Roxy Music, released in 2008.[1] The album's title refers to the guitar model Firebird VII, made by Gibson,[2] a guitar with which Manzanera has had a long career and that was used on this album.

Manzanera met Polish pianist Leszek Możdżer while working with David Gilmour on his On an Island (2006) album and tour, particularly the final show at the Gdańsk shipyards at which Możdżer played piano.
