Empire of the Sun

Empire of the Sun is the Australian project of Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore, built around glam costumes and lush, synth heavy pop. Songs like "Walking on a Dream" and "We Are the People" turned them into festival staples, all soaring hooks and theatrical visuals that make their live shows feel like an event.

They've got Colorado dates on the books, including a stop at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and a show at the Base of Buttermilk Mountain, both prime settings for a band that treats performance as spectacle.
