Established in May 2023, EMPIRED is the brainchild of Jai Hansel (Bass, Vocals), Danny Baeza (Drums), and Bruce Zebal (Guitar, Vocals). Their instant chemistry propelled them into the studio with renowned producer Paul Miner (known for his work with Death By Stereo, Thrice, New Found Glory).
Recognizing the need for an additional guitar to enhance their sound, Cameron Mosavian (The Overrides, Piss and Blood) joined the group. Harnessing this newfound momentum, EMPIRED composed and recorded the entirety of their debut LP, “Finding Calm in the Chaos,” quickly transitioning to a packed schedule of shows across Southern California.
Despite their current DIY status, EMPIRED remains undeterred and, if anything, fueled by the challenge. Having already completed several tours and with more dates on the horizon this month, their trajectory is one of continuous growth and unwavering determination.
The future shines brightly for EMPIRED.
