Empire Machines is a 4 piece Indie Rock outfit that began in Austin, Texas in late 2009. Band members Matt Blackwell (lead vocals, guitar) and Trey McKinley (bass, backing vocals) met in 2004 in their hometown of Houston, Texas, during their first year of high school and have been playing in bands since. The two leveraged Craigslist to find bandmates Austin Perrilloux (drums, backing vocals) and James Boriack (lead guitar, keys) and complete the lineup during the summer of 2011. Each member is in their early 20's. In November 2011, after much time, effort, and lineup changes, the band released their debut self-titled EP. The band is currently playing live shows in and around the city of Austin and beginning work on what will be a new 3 track EP to be released in mid 2012.
