They have proven themselves by their repeatedly breaking Attendance and Bartaking records, which they STILL, 7 years on, continue to do at venues like Castle Hill Tavern, G.Ws - Penrith, not forgetting the smashing of their OWN record at The Collector Tavern- Parramatta and The Fitzroy Hotel at Windsor

Imperial is a five piece band that have held the local pub scene hostage over the past two years. The band has been concocting a smooth cocktail of music with an after taste that wont let you forget. The blend of rockin funkalicious indie sounds mixed in with the Latin flavours of the bongos and a blues harp, remind you of every style that makes you dance.
?Imperial sound like they have put Pearl Jam and Incubus in a blender and liquefied it, they sound like a young band on the verge of something new and exciting Drum media.
mperial started off in lead singer Matt Musumecis garage after he showed them an idea for the first song, which still to this date is yet to be completed. But with Sam Scopelliti on rhythm guitar and the duo of Frankie Iorfino and Jose Carrasco on bass and drums the band was almost fully formed. Then with the introduction of new lead guitarist Alex Tribbia, they were ready to take off.
They recorded their first five track EP in March 08, with this they gained support acts with Sydney rock bands Ooh La La (Bon Jovi?s Support act), and The Amanda Baker Band. They started playing sold out shows at the Vanguard and shows at the Sandringham, The Annandale and numerous other venues across Sydney.
Now Imperial back in the studio recording their first twelve track album, are almost ready to hit the road on their first east coast tour. The band has recently gained sponsorship from the Costa Rican beer company Imperial beer.
So keep an ear out and your dancing shoes ready for the next time Imperial come around.
