ERR & Thou Roadburn 2019 Collab Set Photos / Review
ROADBURN FESTIVAL 11th – 14th April 2019 Tilburg, Netherlands DAY 2 – FRIDAY
Another trek to the Koepelhal, this time for the artist in residence: Thou. Out of four distinctive sets they were to perform, a collaboration with Emma Ruth Rundle was the one I got to see. It was captivating watching it slowly unravel, the dichotomy between Emma Ruth’s and Brian’s voices, the simultaneous harshness and emotiveness of it all. Throw a cover of The Cranberries Hollywood in the mix and we all got ourselves a rather unexpected treat. Although, at this point, nothing about Thou should be surprising to anyone anymore.
Show Review: Emma Ruth Rundle & Mono at the Masonic Lodge in Los Angeles
via New Noise
The Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever has been hosting shows for the last few years now and it always brings in the eerie vibes, especially to a show like this. I got inside the venue and a wall of haze and very somber instrumental music greeted me.
As the room quickly filled up, the opening act comes on stage. Los Angeles native, Emma Ruth Rundle comes back to the city of angels. Playing her signature mix of ambient and folk with the hint of the dark and the heavy to the, at this time, packed Masonic Lodge. I’ve seen ERR 4 times now including once as Marriages, and she still gives me chills every time. Check out her last record On Dark Horses coz it is straight fire.

Emma Ruth Rundle interview (05/2019) // Metal Storm

Knowing that I will have the opportunity to interview a lot of people at Roadburn but still having to work around schedules, I decided to do just two. But the very first one that was on my mind was interviewing Emma Ruth Rundle, knowing how much I loved her last record...

Changing the game: Emma Ruth Rundle at Roadburn 2019
Feature via Never Mind the Hype Roadburn had no shortage of female musicians, generally being awesome. Whether it is the heavy bass work of Tamaki Kunishi (MONO), the multi-layered keyboards of Helen Stanley (Crippled Black Phoenix) or Amalie Bruun (Myrkur) achieving two critically acclaimed black metal albums. Of course, it seems redundant writing about female representation in heavy music today, let alone in regards to a massively diverse festival such as Roadburn. However, it isn’t all that long ago that bands were marketed as ‘all female’ or ‘female fronted’ as if this was something new. So even in this day and age, with those labels long gone out of hot shot marketers’ mouths, female representation is as important and relevant as ever. Enter Emma Ruth Rundle, who is prominently featured at this year’s festival and quickly became one of this edition’s most valuable players.
Thou + ERR Photo Gallery and Show Review
Tour continues // ticketing info at emmaruthrundle.com Full article + photo gallery via Twin Cities Media
Closing out the intense night of music was Thou and Emma Ruth Rundle. Both powerhouses on their own, the two acts decided to join forces and give a few select cities the treat of seeing a collaborative set (thank you Jimmy from False for bringing this event to the Twin Cities). Now, as mentioned and per usual, I was going in a wee bit blind to this show so I couldn’t tell you if the songs being performed were by Thou, Emma Ruth Rundle, or brand new songs they all wrote together. What I can tell you is the way the music came across was absolutely perfect and honestly I could have easily been fooled into thinking that this was just one band that has been performing for years, not a collaboration that will only last a couple of shows.

An Interview With Emma Ruth Rundle // Treble
Full feature via Treble Emma Ruth Rundle doesn’t lend herself to passive listening. Her latest album, On Dark Horses, released last fall via Sargent House, finds the artist sharing personal struggles, combining atmospheric and emotionally gripping instrumentation. Rundle explores some difficult and complicated terrain, such as challenges with mental illness; in creating the record, she sought to present a work of music that would be empowering and provide hope.
Rundle’s craft contains a remarkable balance of feeling and technicality. She weaves melodies into bright moments of melancholy with her vocal inflections, maintaining a somber guitar tone which allows for a captivating fusion. In a phone call with Treble, Rundle says she looks to explore sounds that naturally come to mind and what feelings they carry with them.
Rig tour with Emma Ruth Rundle // Music Radar
Rig tour: Emma Ruth Rundle We explore the tunings and pedalboard of the alt-rock guitar alchemist
Full feature via MusicRadar
Throughout her storied career - which has included stints with post-rock supergroup Red Sparowes, alt-rockers Marriages and drone-metal legend Dylan Carlson - Emma Ruth Rundle has proven herself a dreamweaver of expansive guitar textures.
Her third solo album, On Dark Horses, however, finds her waves of celestial sound lapping against altogether heavier, darker shores. Yet although Emma writes on an acoustic, her rig always informs the direction the material takes.
“It’s like relying on reverb if you’re a singer, and you know there’s going to be that extra dimension to it,” she explains. “I don’t like dry guitar sounds; I have lots of reverb and delay.”
As you’ll see from the gear ahead, she ain’t kidding...
Emma Ruth Rundle Tour Documentary // Revolver
Full feature via Revolver
Whatever acclaim and success comes to Emma Ruth Rundle, it is all well deserved. Every fan of music knows an artist or two or 12 that doesn't get their due, and Rundle's work — from Marriages to Red Sparowes to her solo material — is a case of audience-building through hustle: country by country, city by city, show by show and person by person. Revolver is proud to present an intimate view into that gritty ascension in the form of the new tour documentary On Dark Horses, which makes its premiere above. Directed, shot and edited by Geert Braekers, the short film is an artistically crafted look behind the scenes of Rundle's 2018 tour in support of the excellent 2018 LP of the same name. Check it out and catch Emma Ruth Rundle on the road at the dates below, before someone "I saw her when"s you.

7. Emma Ruth Rundle – On Dark Horses
Operating in a genre of metal-influenced folk rock that has suddenly become very busy, Emma Ruth Rundle shows why she is among the best in the category. From her standout single “The Light Song,” which features her partner and hardcore icon Evan Patterson on guest vocals to the excellent “Fever Dreams,” her album On Dark Horses makes for one of the most intriguing listens of 2018. Like her peers in Chelsea Wolfe and Myrkur, Rundle is able to blend the bleakness of heavy metal with beautiful folk music for a sound that’s altogether unique. – Matt Matasci
