Merganzer is the new experimental project of Violinist Mika Posen (formerly of Timber Timbre, Agnes Obel, Forest City Lovers). Channeling and expanding the soundscapes, ambient textures, and melodic interludes she created for numerous bands over the past decade, Merganzer brings Posen’s musical craft to a slow-burning fruition. Her expressive pop-noir songs and minimalist instrumental pieces slip in and out of genres and transcend time periods, using everything from simple strings, to homemade beats, to soaring sine waves.
