EMPIRED will be touring in support of their new album "Finding Calm in the Chaos," which was recorded, mixed and mastered by Paul Miner (Death By Stereo, Thrice, New Found Glory) at Buzzbomb Studios in Orange, CA, and features tracks with guest vocals from Brenna Red (The Last Gang) and Linh Le (Bad Cop Bad Cop).

Established in May 2023, EMPIRED is the brainchild of Jai Hansel (Bass, Vocals), Danny Baeza (Drums), and Bruce Zebal (Guitar, Vocals). Their instant chemistry propelled them into the studio with
renowned producer Paul Miner (known for his work with Death By Stereo, Thrice, New Found Glory).
Recognizing the need for an additional guitar to enhance their sound, Cameron Mosavian (The Overrides, Piss and Blood) joined the group. Harnessing this newfound momentum, EMPIRED composed and
recorded the entirety of their debut LP, "Finding Calm in the Chaos," quickly transitioning to a packed schedule of shows across Southern California.
Despite their current DIY status, EMPIRED remains undeterred and, if anything, fueled by the challenge. Having already completed several tours and with more dates on the horizon this month, their
trajectory is one of continuous growth and unwavering determination.
The future shines brightly for EMPIRED.
