In March 2017 :werra: will bring a fresh gust of wind to the Neofolk scene with their new release “vente vent”. Six years after their debut “MMI-MMV” the musicians return with a full-length album that is interconnected by the motive of the wind of change.

The album is comprised of catchy tunes, driving melodies and dreamy songs. It stands in the tradition of its predecessor with both original lyrics and traditional poetry set to music. The band – which has grown into a trio since the debut – continues to bring new accents to traditional Neofolk. Especially the accordion adds more dynamic and depth while preserving the distinctive :werra: sound.

“vente vent” will be released in three different formats: CD, 2CD-Box (mailorder only!) and colored vinyl. The first 100 copies of the vinyl will come with the CD as a bonus.

:werra: was founded in 2001.

The recording sessions took place between 2003 and 2005.

Between 2005 and 2012 three songs were released on compilations.

The project was revived in 2012 due to popular demand.

The first album MMI - MMV has been released by Lichterklang in 2012.
