Emma Ruth Rundle
with Patrick Shiroishi
Emma Ruth Rundle’s music “occupies the hypnotic intersection between doom metal, affecting singer/songwriter folk, and densely layered shoegaze.”
The singer and guitarist for California post-rock/psych-metal outfit Marriages, a member of Red Sparowes, and frontwoman for atmospheric psych-folk/slowcore collective Nocturnes, singer/songwriter, guitarist, and visual artist Emma Ruth Rundle is also an accomplished solo artist. Since debuting in 2014 with the acclaimed gothic folk/post-rock effort Some Heavy Ocean, Rundle has issued a string of evocative albums, including a 2020 collaboration with Louisiana sludge metallers Thou, 2021’s stripped-down and unflinching Engine of Hell, and 2022’s improvised EG2: Dowsing Voice.
