EMPRSS
For Ralph Allan (23), Leo Crossing (24) and Johnny Goddard (26), Emprss is a creature of time and trust. They've explored both analogue and digital production and performance together since their early teens living in Farnham. Ralph’s intimate lyrics usher listeners through the dizzying procession of delusions, elations, and fraught nerves colouring his time away studying, and drifting between, Edinburgh and London. A yearlong haze of philosophical and physical escapism in challenging texts and relationships gradually led him to return home Fall 2013, brimming with ideas. With Leo's textured, dark yet defiantly uplifting production and Johnny's live prowess, Emprss took shape - reuniting old friends and reverberating the experience of release and renewal with infectious sound.
