My Empire was formed in 2008 by Luke Wright, Nate Thompkins, and Chris St. John. After putting up fliers in a local music shop, they found a drummer named Ryan Aracena. In April of 2008, they played their first show with a singer, only to have him quit halfway through the year. While holding auditions for a new singer, the band proved that the show really must go on, and continued to perform with no vocalist. However, My Empire was persistent and carried on with auditions, finally finding their new permanent singer, Tanner Hall. Shortly after Hall joined the band, the group recorded their first demo CD.
My Empire's influences come from a broad variety of styles and genres, ranging from bands like Tool, Dream Theater, and Coheed and Cambria, to more mainstream bands such as Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Incubus. It's hard to pinpoint just one gnere or style for this band because, just like their influences, My Empire's songs range from heavier styles, like their song "Punch Me," to a ballad-type song like "Knock Me Down," and the rest cover everything in between.
My Empire has played everywhere from a local billiard hall in Ellington, a church carnival in Tolland, and Toad's Plce in New Haven. My Empire has also been featured on The Rock 106.9 WCCC's Homegrown show during the week of June. Shows have been lined up this summer for a "DIY" tour to promote their music, funded by their own hard earnings.
All in all, My Empire is a band that wants to rock a crowd with energy while also having fun doing it. Doing whatever it takes to reach their goals, whether they be personal or band related, they have all devoted a great deal of their own time, energy, and money into something that not only do they believe in, but something that they know can reach out toa lot of different people. But at the end of the day when all is said and done, they love music and will do whatever it takes to get to the top..
