Recorded and mixed by Empired guitarist Cam Mosavian and mastered by the legendary Paul Miner, the single will appear on the band’s upcoming release.

“A hard hitting song with soulful verses and big choruses, ‘Just A Phase’ explores the end of a relationship. Is it for the better? Are we truly better off? Were we to blame for it ending? Nothing lasts forever and Empired celebrates that like the wake of a loved one” says Bruce Zebal of Empired. Established in May 2023, band is the brainchild of Jai Hansel (Bass, Vocals), Danny Baeza (Drums) and Bruce Zebal (Guitar, Vocals). Their instant chemistry propelled them into the studio with renowned producer Paul Miner (known for his work with Death By Stereo, Thrice, New Found Glory). Recognizing the need for an additional guitar to enhance their sound, Cameron Mosavian (The Overrides, Piss And Blood) joined the group. Harnessing this newfound momentum, group composed and recorded the entirety of their debut LP, ‘Finding Calm In The Chaos’ quickly transitioning to a packed schedule of shows across Southern California. Having signed with Hey!Ever Records and already completed several tours with more dates on the horizon band trajectory is one of continuous growth and unwavering determination.
