Bio
Hard Rock band Broken Empire are Ieuan Owen, Matt Stevens, Ricky Hill and Marco Arena. Formed in 2017 through the magic of the web and a mutual love for bands such as Alter Bridge and Five Finger Death Punch, Oxford based Broken Empire started off as just a 3 piece instrumental project made up of former members of previous Oxford based Rock & Metal bands (and an Italian)! Quickly realising the music being made was too good to just sit on, the band set about recruiting Lead Singer and Rhythm Guitarist Ieuan to complete the ensemble and to get the music out there.
Broken Empire have been gigging regularly throughout 2018, and have had the honour to play alongside some top established bands such as Ryder’s Creed and Hollowstar; both of whom were impressed with what they heard! “A band far too good to be opening the show...” Joe Bonson from Hollowstar.
The band recorded and released their self-titled Debut EP in the Spring of 2018 to a very good reception; within a couple of weeks the songs were in rotation on a number of online radio stations and Spotify Playlists, with feedback from fans and promoters being of nothing but praise for 3 “Hard hitting, powerful” tracks.
Finalists of Bloodstock’s Metal 2 The Masses Competition in Oxford, the band are busy writing new
material and getting their name out there as one of the hottest new bands around. With plans to
release a second EP towards the end of the year, Broken Empire are definitely a Rock band on the
radar that you don’t want to miss!
