Proving just how big their fan base in the US is, Aussie alt electro act Empire Of The Sun wrapped up their overseas tour last night in LA with a sold out performance at the iconic Hollywood Bowl. 

Having performed across the country, including a memorable set at this year's Coachella Festival, frontman Luke Steele wrapped up the tour in front of a jam packed crowd of over 17,500 fans, alongside South African born artist St Lucia.

The sold out Hollywood Bowl show would no doubt be a career highlight for EOTS as the legendary venue has hosted some of the world's biggest musical talent including The Beatles, Billy Joel, The Doors, Barbara Streisand, as well as comedy troupe, Monty Python.

Though they Sydney-founded act have been absent from Australia for some time due to their overseas commitments, the duo are busy in the studio working on their as yet untitled third studio album and the follow up to 2013's ARIA Award-winning record Ice On The Dune.
