About
In 2008, two of Australia’s leading musician/producers, Luke Steele (The Sleepy Jackson) and Nick Littlemore (Pnau), created a vision that seemed to come from an alternative reality – a post-apocalyptic psychedelic adventure known as Empire Of The Sun. The resulting album, Walking On A Dream, went on to sell 1.5 million copies worldwide. Eight ARIA awards (including Album of The Year, Single of the Year and Best Group), 2 BRIT nominations (including Best International Album), and many accolades followed. To date, the band has sold three million copies combined of their albums Walking On A Dream and Ice On The Dune, and reached Multi-Platinum status with global singles “Alive,” “We Are The People” and “Walking On A Dream” (which has been certified Platinum – 1 million sales – in the U.S.). Empire Of The Sun’s sophomore album Ice On The Dune debuted at No. 3 in Australia and charted in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 in the U.S.
