Esmerine is an experimental instrumental group started in 2003 by Bruce Cawdron and Beckie Foon, who have contributed to other Montreal‑based bands as Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Set Fire to Flames, and A Silver Mt. Zion.

Esmerine's music consists mainly of percussion, cello, and marimba, lacking the guitars present in other Godspeed side‑projects. Esmerine's style shares many characteristics with minimalist classical music, and chamber music.
