BRUMES was formed in the midst of the dark winter of 2012, a union among old roommates with a common desire to illustrate ethereality on a sonic level. On vocals and synth is Susana Feliz, hailing from an island across the sea. Desiree Rousseau, on harp and guitar, is originally a Portland native but has lived in all 4 corners of the ancountry. Together they create beyond the musical sphere incorporating painting, drawing, and photography into their project. Get a feel for their dream sounds athttps://soundcloud.com/brumes.
