Emperors
Emperors is rock band from Perth, Australia. Starting out in 2009 as a studio project, Adam Livingston and Greg Sanders had the common goal of writing catchy, loud pop music without any trace of cynicism or pretension. The songs combine rich melodies, anthemic vocals and abrasive guitars, entrenched in 90’s indie rock and 80’s punk, but with a much wider variety of influences.
What began as an inebriated, weekly ritual in a North Perth apartment developed over the next year until it became a poorly rehearsed but passionate rock 'n' roll machine. The addition of bass, drums, a third guitar and a few more sets of lungs meant the band could eventually ditch the 8 track and begin work in a real studio.
Produced by Dave Parkin (Sugar Army, Snowman, Jebediah) the single Favourite Colours was the result. It was hastily picked up by Triple J and after winning an Unearthed competition, Emperors played the Perth Big Day Out on only their 10th gig. They've since played alongside the likes of The Big Pink, Manic Street Preachers, Silversun Pickups and Philadelphia Grand Jury, and were featured in April's edition of Rolling Stone as an "Aussie band to look out for" in 2010.
