More information: Sean Timms: "It's always exciting to release a new album and this one is particularly special as it marks the first time a band member (apart from myself) has written one of the songs. Album opener 'Goliath's Moon' has been written by our guitarist Cam Blokland and it's a smash! There's also a re-worked, extended version of a song I wrote with Mark Trueack for the abandoned Unitopia album titled 'Crossroads', a piece I worked on with Steve Unruh from Samurai Of Prog called 'Innocence & Fortune' and another 'epic' called 'Cries For The Lonely' which drummer Brody Green had a huge hand in creating, as did all of the guys. This is truly a band effort and we can't wait for you all to hear it!"

Influenced by the likes of Dream Theater, IQ, Transatlantic, Karnivool and Steven Wilson, Southern Empire bring a harder, more edgy sound to their music whilst displaying a knack for catchy songs and great melodic hooks.
Southern Empire are: Sean Timms (Keyboards / Vocals / Saxophone) / Danny Lopresto (Lead Vocals / Guitar) / Cam Blokland (Guitar / Vocals) / Brody Green (Drums / Vocals) / Jez Martin (Bass / Vocals)
