Empire of the Sun are an Australian electronic music duo formed in Sydney in 2007, pairing Luke Steele, formerly of the rock band The Sleepy Jackson, with Nick Littlemore of the electronic act Pnau. The two had known each other and collaborated on earlier projects before formally launching Empire of the Sun.

The duo's 2008 debut album, Walking on a Dream, became a breakthrough success, reaching triple-platinum certification in Australia and gold in the United Kingdom and United States; its title track and the single "We Are the People" both charted internationally, and the album won seven ARIA Awards in 2009, including Album of the Year. Later albums include Ice on the Dune (2013), Two Vines (2016), featuring a collaboration with Lindsey Buckingham, and Ask That God (2024).

Empire of the Sun is known for elaborate stage productions built around flamboyant costumes, kabuto helmets, and war bonnets, drawing on samurai imagery and digital visual design for highly theatrical live performances at major festivals.
