The Empty Hearts (a name coined by Little Steven from his secret list of unused band names), is a band who sound like musical cohorts--all came of age in the 70's and 80's music scenes and play by a DIY punk rock code of ethics. They are all connected having come together as a band of friends--Babiuk called up Palmar looking to start something new and shortly thereafter, Palmar connected with Burke who then brought in Easton. A self-proclaimed band of "rock and roll lifers", the chemistry clicked immediately.

Says Clem Burke: ""Those common influences are what brought us together. We're survivors and lifers of rock 'n' roll. We take from everything that's come before musically. A lot of people have never heard or seen a band like this. There's a freshness to it, at the same time as it's a recollection of the past."
