Young Empires Release Single From Debut EP, Wake All My Youth Perform at M For Montreal This Week


"Fully formed with their rock star moves well-honed and their cred firmly cemented." - AOL Spinner

Toronto-based three-piece Young Empires has announced their forthcoming EP, Wake All My Youth, due out February, 21. To usher in the arrival of the EP, they've released the single "Enter Through The Sun" now streaming at SoundCloud. Deemed one of the breakout acts at SXSW 2011, and making appearances at CMW and the Juno Awards earlier this year, the band is scheduled to perform a one-off set at M for Montreal this Thursday Nov. 17th.

Since their formation in October 2009 Young Empires have received international acclaim for their infectious hooks and high-energy sets. Their song "Glory of the Night" was released on Parisian fashion/music label Kitsune Maison 10 and the track "Against the Wall" was featured on a viral fashion video for NYLON TV. They were named one of the top 10 out of over 500 bands at Toronto's 2010 NXNE Festival and have performed at international showcases in London, New York, and Bogota. Their live sets have complemented the performances of Jamiroquai, Dragonette, Sleigh Bells, Jamaica, Holy Ghost, !!!, Japandroids, and Tanlines.
