Bio: With a sound that derives itself from composers and songwriters across the board, Emanuel and the Fear is an extraordinary 11-piece orchestra-rock band that focuses ... (more)
on intertwining the modern day pop song with extravagant and complex composition.
Drawing from romantic and modern composers like Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, and Glass; and then fusing in a modern rock sound like Arcade Fire, Bright Eyes, Daft Punk and Sufjan Stevens; Emanuel & the Fear displays a true understanding of sound all-the-while capturing audiences with their climactic electro/orchestral arrangements and quivering, poetic lyrics.
Based out of Brooklyn, Emanuel and the Fear is currently recording their full-length album with producer Jamin Gilbert at Ishlab Music Studios (Jet, Kudu, and Dead Prez) and is comprised of members who have played/toured with Sufjan Stevens, Spoon, The National, Akron/Family, and Bryan Scary & the Shredding Tears.
The group will be releasing their self-titled debut EP, available digitally on Paper Garden Records on February 17, 2009!
