| FAUN combines
medieval & ancient instruments with modern influences to create an
enchanting and powerful atmosphere. The band's performance incorporates
many different instruments, including the Celtic harp, nyckelharpa,
various lutes, the bagpipes, large Japanese taiko drums, cister, the
violin, flutes and even Arabic instruments like dombra, rebab, riq, oud,
darabukka and bendir, as well as the melodic vocal section going from solo
folk-like and often ambient melodies to chant-like and always
enchanting vocal performances with the two female and frontman Oliver
s.tyr vocalists combining something truely magical.. Influences of
Celtic folk and medieval music fusing with driving beats draws an ever
fast growing crowd of followers. The ensemble FAUN was founded in early 2002 in Munich and has performed at more than 450 locations, festivals, concert halls and churches throughout Europe. Some of them include: MËra Luna Festival (Germany), Elf Fantasy Fair (Netherlands), Wave Gotik Treffen (Germany) , Fiesta Celtica Biella (Italy), Zillo Open Air, Folkwoods Folkfestival (Netherlands), Arena van Vletingen (Belgium), Savari Karneval 2005 (Hungary), Palladius/Barcelona (Spain), Estragon (Italy) and many more... In cooperation with distributor Curzweyhl / Rough Trade (Germany) and the Label "Noir Records" (USA) they have till today sold more than 80,000 CDs worldwide. Also their latest studio CD "TOTEM" hit rank 78 of the german (media control) album charts, rank 6 of the german alternative charts and rank 1 of the german medieval charts. 2009 FAUN will mostly be on tour with their main concert show, where they combine up to three layered vocals, a great variety of old / medieval instruments and modern influences like samples, beats and synthesizers, for an unseated (dancing) audience at rock & folk festivals, medieval & renaissance fairs and other concert venues. Also they will tour with their unplugged show with mostly medieval music through seated venues like churches and theaters.
