“Refreshingly positive and life-affirming” (VICE); a “tour de force” (Mass Appeal); “wild and catchy” (Brooklyn Magazine); “exceedingly unique” (Wild Honey Pie); “fresh and inventive” (All About Jazz); “levitating on a bouncy, cloud of air” (Impose Magazine). More than a decade since their 2009 formation by Miles Francis, EMEFE still holds the title as one of the most exciting live bands to come out of NYC, continually wowing audiences with their mighty horn section and deeply infectious blend of funk, Afrobeat and alt-pop music, and featuring musicians seasoned by years of experience playing alongside Sharon Jones, Antibalas, The Roots, Nile Rodgers and Leon Bridges, to name a few. After countless shows, seven studio releases (including 2015’s EMEFE and 2012’s Good Future) and some years spent fostering other projects, EMEFE returns with a special limited edition vinyl pressing of their 2012 classic Good Future and a much anticipated return to the stage - signaling the dawn of a new era of EMEFE.
