EMM

VIP Meet & Greet is available through EMM’s website

EMM has built a reputation for creating music that showcases a woman’s

unapologetic power in a world that constantly tries to diminish it. She has become a

beacon of hope for girls everywhere who are searching for their inner heroine.

EMM’s story is not a shallow one and it’s not for the faint of heart. In many ways, from

the outside looking in, it’s been a dream - a classically trained musical prodigy from a

tiny Michigan town, graduating early, moving to New York City on her own as a

teenager to pursue music, and making it all a reality. EMM is an accomplished musician

- an award-winning classical pianist, guitarist, songwriter and producer. Not to

mention, her voice and 4 octave vocal range - one that rivals the chart-topping divas of

this generation.

But as a young teen, with all that creativity there was also an intense battle with shame,

guilt, a chronic struggle with depression, a challenging social life, deep familial

struggles, body image issues and religious and sexual trauma. So songwriting was

more than a passion or a discipline in EMM’s life - it was the key to her survival.

She crafted her first mixtape in 2016, Burning In The Dark, about her struggle with

depression and suicidal ideation. She wrote, sang, produced, performed, played,

mixed, and mastered the entire project top to bottom in her tiny North Hollywood

apartment.

She then performed at some of the city’s largest arenas, including the Staples Center

and Dodger Stadium. She even secured features in USA Today, Medium, Earmilk, and

many more press outlets.

Since 2018, she has built an entire superhero story and universe that translates across

3 more mixtapes - “EMERALD,” “RUBY,” and “SAPPHIRE,” with over 155 million

independent streams. “BLACK DIAMOND” is her next project in that series, rolling

out in 2024-2025. Her universe also includes an incredible live show, a doc, a music

video short film with over 5 million views, and upcoming: a video game, an animated

series and a comic. And of course, she’s built a catalog of hundreds of songs. She did

all of this with no label, completely self funded through her success as a content

creator.

In 2024, EMM released her documentary and full-length incredible concert project,

GENESIS, which highlights the unique challenges of behind the scenes women in

entertainment. That project has been extremely viral with the clips reaching 100 million

+ views online.

In 2025, EMM partnered with The Orchard and Independent (the label) for her next

album, BLACK DIAMOND. EMM called the album and visuals “a performance art piece

designed to be a campy representation of the traits in women that are vilified most in

society.”

BLACK DIAMOND was met with critical acclaim from major outlets like GALORE,

ROLLING STONE, and WONDERLAND. CAGERIOT said of her accompanying tour,

“EMM uses her platform to call out oppressive systems, corporate, religious, and

cultural, that try to silence the vulnerable. Her music isn’t just personal. It’s political. It's

a protest wrapped in an anthem... She delivers those themes through flawless

choreography, voice, costume, and presence, all with the seamless precision of

someone trained for this moment their whole life with unwavering heart.”

Like a true alchemist, EMM has turned the things that the industry and the world saw as

an inconvenience- her vision, her strong opinions, her power, and her honesty - into her

superpowers. And this heroine is just getting started. When you ask EMM the question,

“What would you do if you weren’t afraid?” Her answer appears to be, “Just watch.”
