The Empire Strikes Biography
Hailing from Helsinki, Finland, The Empire Strikes is a five piece rock group, completely dedicated to ambitious songwriting and delivering energetic, sweaty live shows since 2012.
The Empire Strikes has toured all the way from the Baltics and cold Nordics to the heat of Iberia and central European metropolises. Headlining on the road or providing support in Finland for such household names as Royal Republic, The Nomads, Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons and The Flaming Sideburns.
“1983”, “High Tide” and “Charm” have all aimed to portray the tricks learned on the road. Each album has been recorded live in studio and boldly reimagined the band’s musical expression.
“Charm” (2019) received the most fan interest and critical acclaim to date, providing the band with vast touring opportunities in native Finland, Scandinavia, and Central and Southern Europe.
Singles “Licence to Thrill” and ”Flowers, Peace and Love and Rock ’n Roll” have prepared the way for album vol 4; ”Motell Scandinavia”. The new album follows it’s predecessor’s path, being live, dangerous and showing a new side of the unit. The Motell will be released in early 2024 via Ghost Highway Records.
The Empire Strikes is eager, anxious and hungry to hit the road again in 2024 with a lineup reinforced with prima vista keyboard player and a truckload of new Scandinavian Rock’n’Roll.
