Blending modern rock sounds with jazz textures, Mesmere envelop audiences in rich melodies, dynamic arrangements and emotive stories. Extending on interests such as Radiohead, A Perfect Circle, Jeff Buckley and Tori Amos, focusing on originality and versatility, Mesmere create music that seeks to continually expand and push limits.
Mesmere deliver a set list varied enough to cater for intimate club shows through to powerful rock performances. Maryanne's dramatic vocals provide an unforgettable centrepiece guaranteed to captivate, a rhythm section built on intricate arrangements complement and strengthen the melodies, lead work and improvisation from both guitars and bass add colour, the result is a sonic mosaic.
Mesmere have developed a repertoire of songs that excite, a finely tuned approach that through the exploration and experimentation of styles and performance delivery has launched them unforgettably into the public eye.
If you're free October 17; Arcane invite you to a massive launch party at The Zoo, as we finally release our new concept album Chronicles Of The Waking Dream with a massive performance of the entire album, complete with album inspired visualizations from the amazing minds at Red Tape Pictures. The show will be supported by Hazards Of Swimming Naked. We hope you can join us!

Hey Maryanne! It's Vanessa from Sally's novella class. How's the writing going? Craziest thing ever, but I think I used to do a music class in high school with your drummer Tim eight years ago or something! It was A.B. Paterson College on the Gold Coast, he may remember me for my really terrible taste in late 90s boy bands, haha. Anyway, let me know if you get some gigs happening sometime soon, I'd really love to see you play live!
Hey guys, thanx for plugging our visuals at your gigs and congratulations on the successful album launch @ the Globe. Its a quality album that makes the cut, not to mention a massive achievement from an independent band.
