Austin-based singer/songwriter and powerhouse guitarist Emily Wolfe returns with her new single  “Lips,”  featuring  Jesse Hughes of Eagles of Death Metal, available now through Judge & Jury Records. The track marks Wolfe’s first single from her forthcoming new album, exuding an equal amount of chemistry and swagger. Combining the swing of 70s rock with the cockiness of the 80s, the hyper-defined production from Gavin Brown (Three Days Grace, Barenaked Ladies, Metric) gives the song enough clarity to feel fresh and modern in 2026.

“This song feels like a full circle moment for me”, says Wolfe. “I grew up loving Eagles of Death Metal, so getting to write and watch Jesse Hughes sing this with me was surreal. It’s what happens when you find yourself creating alongside someone who shaped you, and realize they’re just as hungry to make something dangerous as you are. Writing it with Jesse was electric, and alongside producer Gavin Brown, we created something that’s familiar in all the right ways, but still has the bite of older rock records.”

Wolfe credits Hughes not only as a collaborator, but as a mentor in the studio, guiding her through her first-ever in-studio collaboration with another artist. A fan of Hughes since high school, Wolfe describes the experience as one of the most formative creative moments of her career.

Already an established force in rock, Wolfe has spent 13+ years building her reputation as a guitar-driven artist with millions of streams and major media recognition including The Wall Street Journal, MTV, Guitar Player, Paste, and American Songwriter. Her original song “Atta Blues” has surpassed 2 million streams on Spotify, further solidifying her growing global audience.

A proud Gibson partner, Wolfe has two signature guitar models created in her name. She also shares Gibson signature Epiphone status with Adam Jones (TOOL), a connection that may lead to Wolfe co-writing with Jones in the future. Wolfe was personally asked by the CEO of Gibson Guitars if she wanted to open for TOOL, later discovering that Jones was already a fan of her work.

Emily Wolfe has released three records, toured internationally, and shared stages with major acts including The Gaslight Anthem, TOOL, All Them Witches, and more. 

In support of the new single, Wolfe will be hitting the road throughout 2026 with a stacked run of high-profile performances. She will be supporting YUNGBLUD and The Warning for multiple shows in May, appearing alongside The Mountain Goats and The Menzingers at Sing Us Home Festival in May, and performing at Frank Turner’s festival in September. Additional tour announcements are expected soon.

“Emily Wolfe is great! We’re excited to have her join the IDOLS tour,” says Yungblud. 

“Lips” is available now on all major streaming platforms.

Singer/songwriter/guitarist Emily Wolfe have released her new single “Kill The Love” along with the YouTube premiere of her powerful documentary capturing the passion, drive, and creative process of Emily’s critically acclaimed and politically charged LP, The Blowback.

Her single, “Kill The Love” showcases Emily’s musical gifts as she takes charge of the guitar, vocals, drums, and keys with Evan Nicholson on bass. The lyrics take on the inertia of present-day politics calling attention to the growing anxiety of the population through the driving drums and guitar licks. Emily’s intricate riffs act as the perfect counterpoint to her melodic vocals. “Kill The Love” is an in-your-face ride that fits perfectly as the next step in Emily’s growing catalog of music. 

“‘Kill The Love’ is written about politicians choosing greed over the well-being of the people they were voted in to represent. Playing drums on this song is my visceral attempt to get out my anger,” Emily says, “The last time I played drums on my stuff was “Atta Blues” back in 2016, so it was awesome to sit behind the kit for this one.”

‘The Blowback Mini Documentary,’ premiering today, follows Emily as she records her full-length LP which was released late in 2024. The footage is raw and honest capturing Emily talking about her songwriting process, the production of the LP, and diving into the inspiration for the songs which tackle sexual assault, abortion, and LGBTQIA+ rights.

“Having documentation of the making of my most intense record to date is something I’m beyond excited about. It was so important to me for the camera to bear witness to me being vulnerable in this moment with the hope that it would encourage and allow viewers to step into their own. As an artist, it was so important to me to show that trusting my authentic instincts is always the way to go and I hope that other artists take some reassurance from that. I’m so proud of this film.” Emily says.

Emily hasn’t set foot on solid ground for a long while, as she just completed a European tour supporting The Gaslight Anthem and will start a US tour on May 8 in Santa Fe, NM. (Full tour dates below) Taking a small break, she will head back on tour in the Fall as a headliner in the UK and Europe with her first show in London in early September 2024. 

Emily’s reputation for stunningly impressive live performances has resulted in personal requests from icons such as Heart and TOOL to open for them but also continuing to be able to embark on headlining tours.

She is widely celebrated for her guitar playing and Epiphone/Gibson guitars built two signature guitars selling worldwide with the newest addition being the White Wolfe, following the Sheraton Stealth.
