THIS IS FOR BILLIONAIRES ONLY
This is the exact same Dear Billionaires CD available to everyone else for $20.
It includes no additional music, upgraded packaging, autograph, private performance, special access or other benefits.
Recorded live inside Abbey Road Studio 2, Dear Billionaires captures The Empty Pockets playing the way a real band plays: together, in the room, reacting to one another in real time.
The ten song album was built from full band performances recorded over two days, with no instrumental overdubs. Vintage keyboards, roaring guitars, three part harmonies and the natural sound of one of the world’s most legendary recording rooms give the album warmth, energy and immediacy.
Across songs about love, money, revolution, survival, pie and conifer trees, Dear Billionaires asks a working class question: who can you rely on in a world you did not build and cannot control?
This deluxe gatefold CD features the album’s ransom note inspired artwork, with a disc designed to resemble a miniature vinyl record.
Your purchase includes one standard CD. Nothing more.
Expected to ship on or before October 23, 2026. Packed by our independent team.

Dear Billionaires was captured with all four of us playing together in Abbey Road Studio 2. No assembling the band one person at a time. No polishing away the mistakes, movement or electricity. Just four musicians listening and responding to one another in real life.
Vintage instruments, live harmonies, and the natural sound of the room give these songs their warmth, scale and urgency.
It sounds like a band because it is one.
This is not a record about people we will never meet.
It's about us.
The people working, loving, worrying, laughing, getting by and trying to build a life while the ground keeps moving underneath them.
Across ten songs, Dear Billionaires looks at money, work, relationships, survival and the question underneath all of it:
