We're stoked to officially welcome I Am Empire to the Tooth & Nail Family!

The San Jose, California based band were named by Alternative Press as one of the best-unsigned bands in America.  They have also been featured on AOL’s Spinner, Substream Magazine as well as named “New Band To Watch” by LIVE105 radio station in San Fransisco.

I Am Empire formed in the summer of 2008 with members Austin Lyons (vocals), Andrew Stanton (lead guitar), Dan Otis (Guitar), Joshua Case (bass/vocals) and Eric Martin (drums). The band has recently finished tracking their Tooth & Nail debut in Nashville, TN with producer Rob Hawkins (Disciple, Fireflight).  The debut release will be titled "Kings," and includes 12 tracks as well as a co-write with Anberlin.
