Led by Lithuanian Indrė Jurgelevičiūtė, Merope offers a unique vision of traditional Baltic music, enriched with Bert Cools' experimental guitar and electronics. Their music, a blend of jazz, ambient, minimalism, and cosmic influences, is difficult to categorize. With deep roots in Lithuanian tradition, they focus on the future and create a universal message. Their third album, *Naktės*, and their fourth album, *Salos*, featuring the Vilnius Chamber Choir, brought them international acclaim. Merope continues to evolve with contributions from artists like Sam Amidon and members of Efterklang.
