About Empire of the Sun

Empire of the Sun is an Australian electronic music duo formed in Sydney in 2007 by Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore. Steele had been fronting the alternative rock band The Sleepy Jackson, while Littlemore was one half of electronic dance act PNAU. The two met in 2000 after being introduced in a Sydney bar and spent years collaborating informally before committing to a full project together. Their sound pulls from electropop, synth-pop, dance-rock, and new wave, blending polished electronic production with anthemic vocal hooks that feel built for festival stages.

Their 2008 debut album, Walking on a Dream, broke through in Australia and across Europe. It peaked at number six on the ARIA Albums Chart and earned certifications in six countries, including triple Platinum in Australia and Gold in the United States and United Kingdom. The title track reached number ten in Australia and has since been certified 15 times Platinum by ARIA, making it one of the most successful Australian singles of its era. "We Are the People" topped the German Singles Chart and reached number 14 in the UK. The duo followed with Ice on the Dune in 2013 (peaking at number three in Australia), Two Vines in 2016 (featuring contributions from Lindsey Buckingham and former David Bowie collaborators), and Ask That God in 2024, their first album in eight years.

Empire of the Sun's live shows are built around spectacle. Luke Steele performs in elaborate headdresses, war paint, and costumes inspired by samurai art and Alejandro Jodorowsky's The Holy Mountain, backed by dancers, giant stage graphics, and theatrical lighting. Nick Littlemore focuses on the studio side, handling production and creative direction rather than performing onstage. The duo has headlined the Sahara Tent at Coachella, played Glastonbury, Rock Werchter, Lollapalooza, and the Hollywood Bowl, and their visual approach makes every set feel more like immersive theater than a traditional concert.

Who are the members of Empire Of The Sun?

Empire of the Sun is a duo built around two distinct creative roles. Luke Steele handles lead vocals, guitars, and keyboards, and serves as the face of the project onstage. He came to the project from The Sleepy Jackson, an alternative rock band he fronted through the early 2000s. Nick Littlemore is the production and composition engine behind the duo. He co-founded PNAU with Peter Mayes, collaborated with Elton John's management, and worked on projects ranging from the Elton John remix album Good Morning to the Night to a Cirque du Soleil production. Littlemore opted out of performing live early on, citing a belief that once a record is made, it belongs to the audience. Steele performs with a rotating live band that has included guitarists, keyboardists, drummers, and dancers across different touring eras.

What is the Empire Of The Sun fan experience like?

Empire of the Sun shows are as much visual as they are musical. Luke Steele performs in towering headdresses, kabuto helmets, and ornate robes, surrounded by costumed dancers, oversized stage graphics, and theatrical production design. The aesthetic draws on samurai art, surrealist film, and digital graphics, creating a sensory experience that stands apart from a typical electronic act. Their festival sets at Coachella, Glastonbury, and Lollapalooza have become known for this immersive approach. Fans of the duo tend to gravitate toward the theatrical energy of the live show, and the crowd skews toward listeners who appreciate electronic pop with a cinematic edge. The music has also built a broad crossover audience through placements in video games like FIFA 14 and FIFA 17, film soundtracks including Dumb and Dumber To, and major brand campaigns.
