With her music and visual art as a filmmaker, Emmanuelle is constantly creating a unique juxtaposition not often explored in pop music. She has put on shoes at famed Los Angeles locations such as The Hotel Café and Moroccan Lounge with her band at the time. She was an official artist at SXSW in 2022. June has been featured in in notable publications like Wonderland Magazine , LA Weekly, Buzz Bands LA and Louder Than War.
