EMPTY SEAT

About Me



Based in Whittier California Empty Seat is fronted by one of the strongest female vocalists in Southern California... Red has been compared to timeless singers such as Pat Benatar, the late Janis Joplin & Gwen Stephani of No Doubt with her own twist and some strong pipes. The back bone of the band is not to be ignored either, with a drummer influenced in punk to swing , a guitar player with the ability to adapt to anything with a unique style and a bass player with his soul in the music, the band brings forth the roots of rock n' roll and passion to the listener.
The band has shared the stage with rock legend Slim Jim Phantom formerly of The Stray Cats, 60's soul legend Brenton Wood, Anabella Lwin (Bow Wow Wow) ,Mad Marge and the Stone Cutters and Hollywoods very own Powder as well as some of the hottest local bands around.In 2007 Empty Seat also made top 10 on L.A TV's Battle of the bands . The band strives to take the main stage and share their passion of the music with the world. The future of rock is on shakey grounds with only a handful of true rock n' roll bands.
Empty Seat has had the pleasure of playing some of the finest venues around such as the House of Blues (Hollywood & Anaheim), The Viper Room, The Whisky A Go Go, The Roxy and The Galaxy Theatre, safari Sams , Orange County's Chain Reaction and The Key Club to name a few, as well as many more hot spots all over Los Angeles and Orange County. The bands debute release "Number 9" was featured on KLOS 95.5 fm radio and has been well received everywhere. They have performed on numerous Southern California television shows including Good Day L.A. With their brand new sophomore CD "High Heels On Fire", the band is prepared to unleash their best material to date. With some intense rock songs blended with some beautiful ballads, the bands fan base has been growing every day. The bands hopes to embark on thier first tour in Summer of 2008 and spread thier music to as many ears possible.
Empty Seat is going to keep making music as long as they can and break the mold of what is trendy and what is not, take people back to the days of enjoying a intense live show filled with soaring emotions with music and voice and release albums that will last a lifetime. This is their goal and if they stand alone will you stand with them and support what local artists, musicians and entertainers all long for... Truth, Self Healing, Happiness and Sanctuary that a rock band can give you.
