I Am Empire

1. What prompted you guys to form? Was there something that you all share? How did that go down? Austin and myself (Andrew) have been doing music together for almost 8 years now, we formed with the other guys out of prior friendships and a shared love for music with a meaning, we all have a real passion for this. 2. What’s it like having grown from a small band to now being signed with a major label like Tooth and Nail? It’s still hard to believe honestly, we have looked up to tooth and nail and their bands since the beginning.… Continued →

I recently had the pleasure of doing an email interview with Todd of An Epic No Less.

My Epic

To risk sounding rather cliché, I’d like to start off by saying that My Epic is – well, epic in every way. Whether it’s the music, lyrics, stage presence or the heart of the band itself, “epic” is a rather fitting term all around. Back before “epic” was the buzz word and before they had ever played a show – lead singer Aaron Stone liked to use the term. “Every time I wanted to describe how our music should sound, I’d use the word epic,” he recalls.… Continued →

Bradley Hathaway

(photo by Olivia Sharpe) Bradley Hathaway is a poet turned musician. His thoroughly open and honest lyrics have both attracted and turned away fans of all ages. From my observation, he seems to have one of those “love it or hate it” styles. But the types and amount of fans that Bradley has, might surprise you. Hardcore kids and swaying indie students alike will sit and listen to his spoken word and music. I fit into neither of those categories – but honestly, Bradley Hathaway’s art and personality have always intrigued me.… Continued →

House of Heroes

I’ll admit it – I’m a huge House of Heroes fan. Ever since I first saw them at Purple Door Festival a few years back I’ve been hooked. Now as I sit here and hope that someone decides to buy me a copy of the seemingly amazing Suburba (hint hint, Gotee) – I’m absolutely stoked to share with all of you the conversation I had with Tim a few weeks ago.… Continued →
