New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Cornerstone Agency) Chicago natives Empires have emerged from the deep freezes of the Midwest with "How Good Does It Feel," a brand new track off their upcoming Chop Shop / Island Records debut album Orphan. The record, out later this year, was produced by John Congleton (St. Vincent, The
Black Angels, Explosions in the Sky).
Empires will head out on the road in mid-February introducing songs from the new album. The band will appear at this year's SXSW, along with numerous summer festivals, and later this spring will hit the road as direct support for Margot & The Nuclear So and So's beginning April 25th
