Over the past decade, Empathy Test has evolved from complete obscurity to become one of the best-known and loved bands in the UK, German, and American alternative electronic music scenes, with listeners all around the world. Their unique brand of cinematic, analogue synthesizer-enthused pop delivers a gorgeous sense of nostalgia.
We are very excited to announce four shows in winter of this year.
These will be our biggest ever headline shows in the UK outside of our home city of Manchester and we can't wait to see out our tenth year as a band in style.
We've got an epic double-headliner for you in November.
