Films for the Void!

Cathy and Keith Latinen on Playing Their 49th State, the Lions' Super Bowl Chances, and Building an Empire Empire Together

Season 5 Episode 16

Hello, and welcome to Films for the Void, episode #112! My guests today are the husband-and-wife duo behind emo independent record label Count Your Lucky Stars, home to bands like Camp Trash, Star Funeral, and Thank You I’m Sorry, along with alumni such as Foxing, Free Throw, and Snowing. The pair are also the minds behind Michigan emo band Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate). While the band was active for ten years, the pair decided to hang things up in 2016, but have recently reunited to play Best Friends Forever Festival in Las Vegas on October 10-12 alongside headliners Minus the Bear, Jawbreaker, and Jimmy Eat World. If you can’t make it to Vegas, however, they’ll be playing a string of shows leading up to the festival across the US, kicking things off on September 27 at the Orchid Theater in Ferndale Michigan.
