==Biography==
The first incarnation of Will Stoker and The Embers took place in 2005 consisting of Will Stoker on vocals and guitar, Benjamin Roberts aka Benny Revolver (Benny Revolver & The Blanks) on bass and Ashley Doodkorte (Pyromesh) on drums, playing a few gigs before Will Stoker left Perth for Melbourne. Returning to Perth in 2007, Stoker reformed the band with Brett Murray ( The Wire Complex) added on keyboards and entered the band in the Next Big Thing band competition and the National Campus Band Competition. The band made it to the final of the 2007 Next Big Thing competition〔http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/reviews/events/9925/Next-Big-Thing-Semi-Final-2--Rosemount-Hotel-Perth-2172007.htm〕
After a line-up change – Kynan Tan (The Vice-Chancellors) & Gareth Bevan (Brainhorn) filling in for the departing Murray – the band won the State final of the National Campus Bands Competition〔http://www.themusic.com.au/imm_display.php?s=christie&id=222〕 and then travelled to Melbourne, winning the National Final.〔http://www.indieinitiative.com/ifShowHeadline.asp?ID=6518〕
Will Stoker and The Embers played at the Perth leg of the 2008 Big Day Out〔http://www.enjoyperth.com.au/news/2007/10/big-day-out-perth-2008-line-up〕 on the local produce stage. In March 2008 they followed this by opening the West Coast Blues & Roots Festival in Fremantle〔http://perthmusic.norg.com.au/category/west-coast-bluesnroots/〕 and playing at RTRFM's 'In The Pines' concert in April 2008. Kynan Tan left the band due to creative differences and Benjamin Roberts left due to a crippling gambling addiction. They were replaced by Luke Dux on guitar (The Floors, Timothy Nelson & The Infidels) and Ryan Dux on bass (The Floors, The Kill Devil Hills).
The band's first release, the ''Five Beds for Bitsy'' EP was released in November 2008, and distributed through Shock Records. Tours on the east coast of Australia followed.

The self-titled album has gained widely positive reviews from street press 〔http://www.xpressmag.com.au/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1504:will-stoker-a-the-embers-self-titled&catid=35:cd-reviews&Itemid=119〕〔http://www.ravemagazine.com.au/content/view/20361/181/〕 and online music review websites.〔http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/reviews/music/23383/Will-Stoker-and-the-Embers--Will-Stoker-and-the-Embers.htm〕 The album has also proved popular with illegal download and file-sharing websites.
The first single to be released from the debut album, "The King", received airplay on national youth radio station, Triple J.〔http://www.jplay.com.au/JSite/ViewSong.aspx?SongID=29722〕 The accompanying music video was shot by Mat De Koning with Paul Donnelly & Mat Doust with the band in an old abandoned music cinema in the Perth CBD on 14 March 2010.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8PCCppfFSk〕
Luke and Ryan Dux won 'Best Guitarist' and 'Best Bassist' respectively at the 2010 West Australian Music Industry Awards.〔http://wam.asn.au/Events/WAMiFestival/WAMiFestival2010/2010WAMiAwards/tabid/168/Default.aspx〕 Stoker was nominated in the 'Best Male Vocalist' category, but failed to win.〔http://www.wam.asn.au/Events/WAMiFestival/WAMiFestival2010/2010WAMiAwards/tabid/168/Default.aspx〕
The band supported Kasabian at Thebarton Theatre in Adelaide as part of Kasabian's July 2010 Australian Tour,〔http://www.ravereview.com.au/adelaide/gig-reviews/245-kasabian-wwill-stoker-and-the-embers-thebarton-theatre-280710〕 before travelling to Melbourne to launch their album on the east coast of Australia at The Tote in Collingwood. Will Stoker and The Embers supported The Charlatans for the last gig of the later band's 2010 Australian Tour.
In January 2011 Luke and Ryan Dux announced they would be leaving the band leading to a brief hiatus. During this time Will Stoker focussed on solo material.
In March 2012 the hiatus was broken when Anthony Jackson (ex-Birds of Tokyo) and Dylan Szymkow (Nexus, Thee Gold Blooms) joined the band. Will Stoker and the Embers returned to the live circuit〔http://www.spaceshipnews.com.au/will-stoker-the-embers-return-perth-live-circuit/〕 and are working on the follow-up album to 2010's self-titled debut
