empire! empire! (i was a lonely estate)

Someone book this band!

I got a Myspace request from empire! empire! (i was a lonely estate) a while back and was immediately hooked by their tunes, which sound like Explosions In The Sky and Jeniferever meets Saves The Day (a guilty pleasure of mine. come on, how can you not love this video?). Crazy band name and Emo leanings aside, try not to judge this book by it's cover and check out the songs at their Myspace. And if you are a booker, please consider hooking these guys up with a gig. The band is currently looking to book a tour from their home base in Michigan to the East Coast on the following dates in these states:

May 23 OHIO
May 24 PENNSYLVANIA
May 25 NEW JERSEY
May 26 RHODE ISLAND
May 28 MASSACHUSETTES
May 29 NEW YORK

Not only will you be doing the band a huge favor, you will also be doing be a favor, because I very much want to see these guys live.
