After completing a sound engineering degree at Boston’s Berklee College of Music in 2011, Rodriguez moved to New York City and quickly broke into the local music scene performing in a Brooklyn-based band with Sam Owens called Celestial Shore, but soon left the group to focus on her own music.In 2012, Rodriguez initially gained attention for anonymously releasing a series of one minute-long demos (via YouTube) prefaced only by a solid color entitled “Colorminutes”. Her first 7″ single, “Champagne”, was released soon after on November 5, 2012, through a limited run via No Recordings.Rodriguez’s stage name was inspired by a tarot card reading she did with a friend: “The first card he pulled out was an Empress card and I was like, ‘It’s me, I am Empress.’ […] the Empress card is connected to fertility and mothering and strength. It’s kind of nice to have those feelings.”On April 2, 2013, her bilingual four-track EP Systems was released via Double Denim and Terrible Records in the UK and North America respectively. Since the release of her EP, she has showcased at SXSW, Iceland Airwaves and Pitchfork’s Summer Music Festival, and toured as a support act with the likes of Jamie Lidell, Jungle, Kimbra, and Florence and the Machine.
In 2013, Rodriguez signed to British independent label XL Recordings via a joint deal through Terrible and began to work on material for her debut album, while living in Brooklyn. A few weeks into writing, she went on a retreat to Mexico. After finding New York’s environment was negatively affecting what she had produced thus far, the isolation of the trip allowed Rodriguez to be fully introspective and truly begin the writing and pre-production for her debut at the end of 2013.
