   About esperi ( on tour )


YOU CAN PLAY ALONG (run your mouse over the bells )

Esperi is the project of Chris Lee-marr, who plays both solo and with the help of his friends Cat Lee-Marr (harp), Jon Adam (drums), Craig Arnott (bass) and Eilidh Glynn (cello). Chris also plays in the a forest with Cat and Eilidh , and in the kays lavelle .
Esperi have played shows around the uk with such great artists as James Yorkston , Pictish Trail , Sleepingdog ,Gomez, Vessels ,Zoey Van Goey ,Emily Barker, Meursault , Brother Louis collective , De Rosa , Trapped in Kansas and have an e.p called 21:21 .

gorgeous, wistful folk by one man and a guitar, accompanying himself with a veritable toyshop’s worth of rainbow-coloured bells and plastic percussion-last years girl

"Esperi layers the most colourful instruments using a loop pedal. Rainbow coloured bells, serenading guitar, meandering xylophone and a whole host of sounds. The intricacies created were at points majestic yet fragile enough that it was like watching feathers falling and hitting the air like bows wafting upon violins. One mans journey into sleep is another man’s dance through the fields. That is the beauty of Esperi, you are left wistful yet elated after seeing him live." Halina Rifai-Glasgow PodcART

"Like going to the pantomime with the cub scouts " Mixu (friend)

"It’s really difficult to put into words what Chris Lee- Marr’s performance was like. It was quiet, bizarre, breathtaking, claustrophobic, impressive and intense; at times it was just jaw dropping. Playing solo, Chris managed to conjure some absolutely magical moments by combining his unbelievable guitar playing with some quite beautiful moments of musical mayhem. Whether it was by recording himself while playing then adding layer upon layer of instrumentation on top of the recording, or by his magical feet tapping bells while playing guitar, the outcome was some kind of beautiful madness. One of the most low key and laid back performances I have witnessed, at times there was an intensity that made the room feel as if the air had been sucked out and we were left with a vacuum surrounded by music. Set highlights Dialled and Proverb are amazing songs deserving of a huge audience, you can get the Esperi album from the myspace." Sean Mcann - Glasgow PodcART


sound like music to put a baby to sleep with, or like a man singing on top of a mountain- Sara

Hi Chris, hope you're well. Good to see Esperi's name out and about. Will really need to try and catch up, I feel I've been terribly remiss. Anyhow, is a piece of spam OK? Will you be playing?

hey there, I hope you are doing well and smiley happy
it seems you are really busy right now but I was  just wondering...
I'm really interested in learning more about the magic box thing that makes loops and you could spend a life time having musical adventures with it...once i have figured it out. so, really I'm asking if you might have time to teach me? or even just send me in the right direction in how to come about one and get started? infact - knowing the name of this magic loop box of wonder would probably be a good start. i thought perhaps you were the chap to be speaking to. so get in touch when you get the chance.

peace x
