Derry Brownson 1970 - 2026

14 August 2026

Last night we lost our Brother In Arms, Derran Brownson.

We are devastated. The only solace we can find is that we are eternally grateful Derry was able to join us on stage a couple times just a few short months back.

Nothing will ever be the same again without our band mate and friend.

Fly high, brother Derry.

Blue Plaque in Cinderford

We’re going Plaque to Cinderford! On Tuesday, March 18th, we’ll be coming home for the unveiling of our blue plaque in Cinderford Town Centre. We are so proud to be recognised in this way at the very place where we started our journey all those years ago.

New Single: "Reach for the Lasers"

11-OCT-2024

"Reach for the Lasers" is our celebration of the dance floor. James has always been the representative of electronic dance music within EMF and the combination of that with Ian’s indie rock guitars is what makes the EMF sound. This song is EMF paying homage to all those moments we find ourselves feeling uplifted, in a crowd of elated people, hands in the air worshipping at the altar of those great DJ’s that can bring people together in a frenzy of love and ecstasy. The core of the song being James’ list of his all-time greats, no prizes for guessing his favourite: Andy Weatherall comes 4 times. Calling all ravers!
