Their songs are carefully structured to tell stories and evoke emotions without words, achieved through dynamic shifts, intricate riffs, and memorable melodies.

KNIGHTRESS, violin-led metal band based in Paris, FR, and brainchild of violinist, vocalist, pianist & composer Emily Palen, fuses a crushing rhythmic foundation with searing violin leads, clean to extreme vocals and consciousness theory to form a fresh voice in the genre.

KNIGHTRESS is completed by French musicians Leo Caviglioli (guitar), Waldo Losada (bass) and Paul Gaget (drums), bringing a sophistication and depth to the sound that is irreplaceable. They recorded their full-length albumin September, of 2023 with renowned French metal producer Francis Caste at Studio Sainte Marthe. The album, entitled "The Sentient Condition", will be released in the Fall of 2024.The music is born from an incessant need to express vast spectrums of emotion, lyrically bearing witness to life’s cruelties while pointing us back to our better natures. Sonically, the band lays an undeniably heavy foundation from which, their passion for fresh musical intuition drives their sound over the edge of the impossible. Music plavs a profound role as humanity teeters between ultimate destruction and radical evolution. KNIGHTRESS strives to be a voice for those oppressed, either by country or lover, catalyzing us towards our natural states of harmlessness and infinite potential.Freedom is our birthright.
