Empyre show no signs of slowing down after the release of their 2023 album Relentless on Kscope. The past couple of years have been a whirlwind of appearances, interviews, festivals, tours, stellar reviews and the odd pub crawl.
In May 2025 the band completed their first ever headline run, followed in October by support slots with Cats In Space and, most recently, The Raven Age.
Now Empyre have announced details of their Road To Nowhere UK headline tour for 2026. As they work on their new album, the band will continue to build on their momentum with a second headline tour that includes their biggest ever hometown show in Northampton and reinforces their reputation as a rising force in UK Heavy Metal.
“After three tours this year,” Frontman Henrik Steenholdt says, “including the resounding success of our first headline run, we made it a priority to get back out on the road as soon as we could.
“We are planning a set list that mixes fan favourite Empyre tracks along with new songs showcasing our sound going forward. Plus we will be rounding it all off with our biggest home town show ever. It is going to be special.”
Tickets are available now from Empyre.co.uk/gigs.
Empyre have previously shared stages with Terrorvision, Gun, Massive Wagons, South Of Salem, Stone Broken, The Damn Truth, Black Spiders and Vintage Caravan, as well as appearances at Takedown Festival, Planet Rock Winter’s End, Steelhouse Festival and more.
Relentless is out now via Kscope on CD, vinyl and digital platforms.
