We already knew Meskerem Mees from MOMO Create & Perform: in 2021 she and Utrecht singer-songwriter Spinvis met up for the first time in Ghent and took a musical walk around the city. At the time, we considered her a well-kept secret, but life is running fast for the Belgian singer-songwriter who is now stepping on big stages in Europe. We wanted to catch up in anticipation to MOMO Festival 2022, so we visited her sold-out show at EKKO (Utrecht): in-between a few hands of UNO, we talked about her creative process.
