Embrace are an English guitar band from Brighouse, West Yorkshire. To date they have released five studio albums, one singles album and one B-sides compilation. The band consist of brothers singer Danny McNamara and guitarist Richard McNamara, bassist Steve Firth, keyboardist Mickey Dale, and drummer Mike Heaton. The group's most recent studio album, This New Day, was released on March 27, 2006.

After building a following through their EP releases, their debut album The Good Will Out went to number 1 in the British charts on 14th June 1998. However, the sales for their subsequent releases, Drawn from Memory (2000) and If You've Never Been (2001) were disappointing by comparison and the band were dropped by Hut Records in 2002, amid confusion as Virgin Records (Hut's parent company) were taken over by EMI.
