Maer - Sister

Maer is a new dark folk/chamber prog project from Anna Murphy (Cellar Darling) and Marjana Semkina (Iamthemorning). The first single Sister also features Benjamin Baret of Ne Obliviscaris and Keli Guðjónsson of Agent Fresco. Sister is our first message to the world. A message of love and loss, and denial. Thank you to all the wonderful people that helped us bring this to life, and everyone who is supporting us on this journey. This is just the beginning.
