Australian electronic pop duo Empire of the Sun perform their synth-driven, cinematic sound at the Moody Center.
Empire of the Sun play the Moody Center on Monday, September 21, starting at 7:30 PM. The Australian electronic-pop duo is touring North America, and this is their Austin stop.
If you've heard of them but never seen them, it helps to know what they're bringing. They describe their show as visually theatrical, and that's a good place to start. It's not just the music; they lean into the stage production, so there's a fair amount to look at while you listen. The sound is built around synths and has a cinematic quality to it, and they'll be playing through their well-known singles, which pull from dance, rock, and pop.
That blend is a good way to describe them. They're an Australian duo, and the electronic-pop label fits, but the set draws on a few different places at once. The synth-driven sound is the core, and the songs they're known for sit right in that intersection of dance, rock, and pop, so it's a set that works as well for dancing as it does for just listening. The theatrical side of things is part of the package, too—the stage production is as much a part of the evening as the music.
