The band's core members are Greg Weeks, Meg Baird, and Brooke Sietinsons, but they often expand to a sextet with the addition of Helena Espvall, Otto Hauser, and Chris Smith. Espers released their self-titled debut album "Espers" in 2004, which was followed by "The Weed Tree," an EP of covers and traditional songs, in 2005. Their third album, "III," came out in 2009 and continued to showcase their evolving sound that melds early music influences with more contemporary experimental approaches. The band has been associated with the so-called "freak folk" movement and has garnered a following for their haunting melodies and ethereal soundscapes.
