Emmitt James

(Milwaukee, WI)

Genre: Hip-Hop

From the DIY circuit to playing bigger stages like the Roxy and the Novo, Emmitt James is a well celebrated and experienced performer. The Midwest-bred emcee and now LA-based hip-hop artist has been said to be reminiscent of acts like A Tribe Called Quest, Anderson. Paak and The Internet. Since being billed for Pharcyde Phestival ( 2018), Emmitt has been gaining momentum from opening for legendary acts such as The Pharcyde and Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def) to contemporary acts like Cuco, Joey Purp, Duckwrth, Old Man Saxon, Jay Prince, Banesworld and more. He also was a semi-finalist (top 12 out of 1,000) in the Adidas Originals Sound Lab grant competition where he scored a meeting with Pusha T at ComplexCon 2018.

Genre: Alternative, Hip-Hop

Faded Francis is a singer, performer, and producer based in the great city of Milwaukee. A luscious blend of psychedelic rock, RnB, pop and rap, his beats and melodic lyrics have been compared to BROCKHAMPTON, Mac Miller, HOMESHAKE and even Post Malone. Faded is committed to providing an excellent and engaging entertainment experience, and just as importantly – coming together as a movement as we work to get people like Francesca Hong into elected office.
