Classic Rock heralded “giant killers” Empyre have shown no signs of stopping following the release of their album ‘Relentless’ in 2023 on Kscope.
2023 and 2024 was a whirlwind couple of years of appearances, interviews, festivals, tours, stellar reviews and pub crawls.
But 2025 took things to the next level as the band went out on on their first ever headline tour in May, followed by runs in October supporting Cats in Space and then most recently The Raven Age last month.
In 2026, as they work on their new album, Empyre will continue to build on their momentum with a 2nd headline tour including their biggest ever home town show. Frontman Henrik Steenholdt comments,
“After three tours this year including the resounding success of our first headline run we made it a priority to get back out on the road as soon as we could. We’re planning a set list that mixes fan favourite Empyre tracks along with new songs showcasing our sound going forward. Plus we’ll be rounding it all off with our biggest home town show ever. It’s going to be special.”
