EMMA RUTH RUNDLE - Some Heavy Tour

In the organizer's words:

Both in life and in art, Emma Ruth Rundle has been on the run. Over the past 15 years, the Los Angeles-born musician has moved from project to project, living nomadically while playing guitar in post-rock bands, before moving on to a solo career. Now, with her fourth solo album Engine of Hell, she seems to have arrived.
Rundle sings and plays piano in the harrowingly intimate songs, which deal with her drug and alcohol addiction - everything is laid bare. "The older I get, the more I realize that the true value of what I have to offer as an artist lies in the ugliness of things," she says.
The 40-year-old moves on the fringes of metal, but often has more in common with the folk music she grew up with than her heavier counterparts. However, the darkness in her music continues to attract metal fans and led to a celebrated collaboration with sludge band Thou, May Our Chambers Be Full in 2020. For Emma herself, genre conventions don't play a major role: "I'm a person who makes noise. Sometimes it's folk, sometimes it's not." This year, she wants to make the album Some Heavy Oceans, which was released in 2014, the starting point for her solo concerts. We are delighted that she is coming back to UT Connewitz!
