Janosch is the name of the music which Jesper Marcussen makes with the help of the people around him. Janosch was originally a duo formed back in 1997 with guitarist Jacob Læby, and before Jacob left the project the two members recorded the Inhere Outthere EP together. Janosch was founded on an idea of creating and recording simple melodies in a simple way, the dreamy and gentle Janosch way. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Janosch">Read more on Last.fm</a>
