Naked Empire is a 5-piece Austin-based progressive rock band writing music through the combination of classical piano, blues rock guitar, a driving rhythm section, and crisp, prominent vocals. Elements of the group had formed up in early 2006 with the completed lineup being finalized in March of 2007. Following a self-titled 5-track E.P. in the summer of 2007, they released their first full length album "Bottom Feeders" the following summer. January 2009 brought the release of a single, "Is It Light", their show closer for the preceding year. With the plan to continually release new music, Naked Empire is heading back into the studio in early March to begin recording another handful of songs to be released over the coming months to compliment their growing show schedule.
