West Country fivesome Empire impressed us with their set at last November's Nightmare festival, now the rockers announce their single 'Patchwork and Bone' will be digitally released on February 16.
Watch the video for the song below.
The band will also head off on a headline tour throughout February, which includes London's Black Heart on the 18th.
Vocalist Joe Green explains a little about 'Patchwork and Bone': "This song is about raising questions then trying to understand them - when that happens you tend to really bring your hypothetical questions to life, by you or someone else taking them literally. This song isn't about just people connecting with my real life situations I have experienced, but its about giving the people who listen to it and chance to become the interpreter. We want people to connect to it in their own way and we think the music and lyrics give people that opportunity."
Following the release of their 'Where The World Begins' debut EP in late 2013, the band have been busy lately putting the finishing touches to their mini-album 'Our Simple Truths', set for release in September.
Empire are: Joe Green (lead vocals), James L’Esteve (guitar), Jon Tupper (drums), Dave Thomas (guitar), Freddie Forbes (bass)
