MESMER
MESMER consists of the three musicians and composers Emil Jensen, Victor Dybbroe and Anders Filipsen, who have been creating music together the last 15 years in various groups.
MESMER is fascinated by how sound (and lack of) influences us as people and how the different natural and cultural environments create different musical scenarios.
