Tusks

✦ Tusks is the moniker of Hastings-born, London-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Emily Underhill. Across four albums, she has developed a distinctive sound spanning electronic production, ambient textures, shoegaze and cinematic songwriting, earning support from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Rolling Stone, Billboard, MOJO and Mixmag. Underhill’s fourth album 'Do I See You There?' is the first Tusks full-length to be written and produced entirely by her. Created following the death of a close friend, the record explores grief, memory and connection, pushing Tusks’ meeting point of ambient electronics, dark dream-pop and cinematic songwriting into new territory. Working with rare collections of vintage synthesisers, Tusks allows the unpredictability of analogue equipment to shape the songs and process her emotions. Tusks has toured extensively across the UK, Europe and the US, performing both solo and with a full band and sharing stages with artists including Khruangbin, Ásgeir and Submotion Orchestra. Her music has appeared in film and television including Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why and Capturing the Killer Nurse, and she collaborated with CJ Mirra on the soundtrack to A Banquet.
