EMA is the solo moniker of guitarist/vocalist Erika M. Anderson, who shaped her experimental voice and guitar techniques in two well-regarded underground bands before setting off on her own. Anderson, who moved to Los Angeles from South Dakota when she was 18, played guitar with folk-noise outfit Amps for Christ in the late ‘90s and early 2000s, then formed the psych-folk band Gowns in 2004 with former Mae Shi member Ezra Buchla. After three albums, Gowns disbanded in 2010, and Anderson began working on solo material. Her single Grey Ship arrived about a year later and boasted a 17-minute version of Robert Johnson's “Kind Hearted Woman.” Her debut album, Past Life Martyred Saints, appeared in mid-2011. ~ Heather Phares
EMA has also released music as a member of Thrash Palace, Gowns, and The Blow.
