Old Empire Concert History

Old Empire’s music, which spans the breadth of American pop, is influenced by the iconic genres of American music, evoking everything from Motown, to 60’s surf rock, traditional country and NYC new wave. Songs like the Jonathan Richman-esque “Sweaterdress,” stroll with both confidence and vulnerability while the dreamy lilt of “Queen City,” and the rolling electric piano of “Empty Promises,” showcase the band’s versatility and emotional range.
