Canadian alternative rock powerhouses The Veer Union are kicking off a bold new chapter with Arising Empire, starting with the release of their explosive new single ‘My Empire’—out now and leading into their upcoming album ‘Reinvention’, set for release on February 20th, 2026.

Blending emotional vocals, intense shouts, and massive hooks, ‘My Empire’ is a fierce anthem of survival and self-empowerment. Lyrically, it tells the story of rising from the ashes in the face of chaos and inner conflict—an unflinching declaration of strength that perfectly reflects the band’s evolution and resilience.

Since signing their first major record deal with Universal Records in 2008 and landing a Top 10 Active Rock hit with their breakout single ‘Seasons’, The Veer Union have built an impressive legacy. With over 150,000 albums sold, 11 Billboard Rock Radio Top 40 singles, and more than 100 million streams worldwide, the band has established themselves as a force in the modern rock and metal world.

Their 2018 album ‘Decade II’, produced by vocalist Crispin Earl, featured four Billboard-charting singles—including ‘Living Not Alive’, which reached #21 on the Billboard Top 40 Rock Charts, earned over 10 million streams, and amassed 1.8 million views on YouTube. In 2019, the band released ‘Covers Collection Vol.1’, with their version of Halsey’s ‘Nightmare’ going viral—racking up over 2 million views in four months, hitting #25 on Billboard, and surpassing 3.5 million streams.

After extensive touring alongside acts like Red, Puddle of Mudd, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and Saliva, The Veer Union took time to refocus, write, and self-produce new material. Now, with ‘Reinvention’, they return with sharpened vision, unmatched intensity, and a message louder than ever.

‘My Empire’ marks the beginning of that new era—raw, anthemic, and undeniably powerful.
