A little too innocent.

About Me

Hark! A chaotic, yet melodic, voice is piercing through Music City's twang of tradition, renouncing trends and creating sound and melody beyond the normal capacity of all genres of music. Years ago, Born Empty formlessly emerged among the minds of five young men. What began as a jam session between friends, evolved into a superb outlet of musical ingenuity. Born Empty is like a sponge soaked in an array of influence. Witnesses to the squeeze have described their sound as "an eighty's Incubus," "Cheap Trick on acid," "love-child of The Dillinger Escape Plan and Foo Fighters," or " the legitimate offspring of Metalllica and The Flaming Lips ." Although their sound is truly eclectic, it ingeniously maintains a unity that is both fulfilling and pleasing to the ear. Deemed "the Wizard of Oz of musical performances," Born Empty's vibrant youth explodes into a riotous onslaught upon the stage. They captivate audiences with spine tingling finesse and charisma during a seemingly unyielding thunder quake of eye consuming activity, moving everyone into a fun-filled frenzy. Self-esteem soars, and smiles abound. Simply put, BORN EMPTY ENTERTAINS! The band has recently compiled their history (which includes two full length independent releases and extensive touring) into a DVD documentary coupled with musical excerpts from the forthcoming album, tentatively titled, The Odyssey Chaotipop Oddity. As a result of their incessant touring Born Empty's fan base is thriving and continues to grow. Aside from being a band in space and time Born Empty's message is timeless. They're purpose for BEing is heard in their lyrics, felt in their sound, and seen in their performances. With their loving song as the eye, they watch natural chaos expand over the warm waters of the unknown. Land's just over the horizon, their pinkies are up! Don't Deny Your Creator Fat Kid!
