emily the band is a three-piece queer girl group based in central Illinois. Although they officially became a band in 2021, the love story between Emily Antonacci, Camryn Proctor, and Abbey Haste began in their teens. After meeting in high school and becoming musical collaborators, the trio realized they were platonic soulmates. Now, they get to spend their early twenties sharing their indie alt-pop anthems with audiences in Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Nashville, and beyond.
