We caught up with rock band Empyre today at a festival, and they had some fun insights to share. With the sun finally out after some rain, the band chatted about their day, upcoming plans, and even threw in some laughs. Check out the full interview in the video below!

A Chat in the Sun
Empyre arrived early this morning and squeezed in a soundcheck and a VIP acoustic set that went over well. They joked about bringing a “black raincloud” with their melancholic music but hoped the sun would stick around for the upbeat songs. Festival highlights included quick glimpses of other bands and some unexpected dressing room treats like Haribo, Crunchy bars, Red Stripe, and neck oil. They even debated sun cream vs. the weather!
What’s Next for Empyre
The band is excited about upcoming gigs, including a tour with Raven Age and Cats in Space, plus a studio session to record new material. They debuted four new songs on a recent tour, including one called “Phony” about insomnia and paranoia, and let fans suggest wilder names like “Wank Bag.” They also shared their love for performing live and connecting with the audience.
Fun Moments and Advice
The interview got personal with compliments about their long-time collaboration and the thrill of seeing fans tattoo their lyrics. When asked for the best advice they’ve received, one member quipped, “Don’t be shit,” while another added a sweet nod to parenthood. There’s more to uncover in their lively exchange—watch the video here to see it all!
