Here, Em & the Fates talk to Bitch about how they came together, their latest video “Prey,” and finding their feminist voice."

EM & THE FATES, “PREY”Debut

 

"Inducing memories of legends like AMY WINEHOUSE and THE SUPREMES, Brooklyn based Em & The Fates are SHOWING OFF THEIR CHOPS YET AGAIN!"

"Depicting an ELABORATE SECUTION, and simultaneously A DEMAND FOR FAIR TREATMENT, the video is IMPRESSIVE AND POWERFUL, featuring an EMBODIMENT OF EMPOWERMENT THAT WE SO DESPERATELY NEED!"

-- Impose Magazine on the premiere of "PREY"

"BEAUTIFUL LIFE" Press

"NYC’s Em & The Fates go for an old school soul sound on their new single “Beautiful Life”. Grrrl group vocal harmonies lock down that vintage vibe with a nod to Motown. Add to that the radiantly positive message and you have the making a Nu Gospel number that will bring a shoulder shimmy to the dreariest of Mondays." -YabYum Music & Arts

"As lead singer Emily Kron croons with a voice that seems made to plush out show-tunes with its vibrancy and theatricality, you will unavoidably get a soft spot for life, or at least, their song “Beautiful Life”. Em & The Fates have provided song and video to watch when you need to remember one of the greatest things you will ever see is smile, and one of your best achievements is putting one on" - Diandra Reviews It All
