Luke Steele says he hasn't seen Nick Littlemore for months...

Empire Of The Sun's Luke Steele says he hasn't seen his bandmate Nick Littlemore for at least five months. Littlemore, whose day job is frontman for Australian act Pnau, has always been one half of the studio-based side of the project, but has previously stated that he wouldn't be part of the act's touring party.

Now, Steele has told ABC that Littlemore "disappeared about five months ago and I haven't really heard from him. Last I heard he's in Canada and then he's in Vegas. He's just left me with the baby".

Steel, who is also the brains behind The Sleepy Jackson, will now perform Empire's first live shows down under with members of Adelaide act The Swiss. They make their first appearance at the Parklife festival in Brisbane this weekend (September 25/26).
