EMF

Formed in 1989 in the quiet town of Cinderford in England's Forest of Dean, EMF exploded onto the global stage with their infectious blend of dance, rock, and pop. Within a year, they were everywhere, thanks to the smash hit 'Unbelievable', a song that would go on to define a generation and top charts worldwide.

Their debut album Schubert Dip (1991) captured their raw energy and genre-defying sound. With follow-ups Stigma (1992) and Cha Cha Cha (1995), EMF took fans on an ever-evolving journey, shifting from dance floor anthems to darker, more introspective sonic territory. But by 1995 the toll of the spotlight and constant touring was beginning to tell and the band went their separate ways. Before bowing out gracefully, they released their hit version of The Monkees "I'm a Believer," accompanied by comedians Vic and Bob.

It wasn't until 2020 that EMF truly reignited. Marking their 30th anniversary, the band released the expansive box set From Us to You, which included remastered classics and a disc of b-sides and unreleased archive material called Flipsides and Bonafides.

Feeling the love from their loyal fans, James and Ian started writing again, culminating in the triumphant 2022 release of Go Go Sapiens. With new drummer Aid Todd behind the kit, the band hit the road once more, reuniting with audiences across the UK, Europe, and the US.

Their momentum continued with 2024's The Beauty and the Chaos, a critically acclaimed album that reaffirmed EMF's place in the modern music landscape.

Now, EMF are not just back, they're thriving. Still creating, still touring, and still full of the life-affirming energy that made them unforgettable. EMF remain as vital and visionary as ever.

EMF are very pleased to announce THE BEAUTY AND THE CHAOS UK TOUR in January and February 2024.

The energy and love from the past year and a half has energised us and we don’t want to slow down! We’re looking forward to seeing lots of familiar faces out on the road!

THE BEAUTY AND THE CHAOS TOUR has us returning to some favourite venues from the past as well as adding exciting new ones to our archive.

As the tour name suggests, our brand new studio album THE BEAUTY AND THE CHAOS will be released very soon, no doubt a few tracks from this new masterpiece will make it into the set list alongside all our past favourites which we still love dust off and play every night.
