Fauns | nl

There are two bands with the name 'Fauns'

1) A band founded in Berlin in the mid-nineties playing a mixture of folk rock and prog rock, now known as Favni. Part of their lyrics are inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien. After several demos they released their first full-length album "LeafFall" in 2007. The second album "Awaiting the Sun" was released on Firefield/EMG April 1, 2011. The current line-up consists of the brothers Jan-Peer, Nils and Falk Hartmann on vocals and guitars, drums and bass, respectively, of Kirsten Middeke (viola, flute and vocals) and Jan Hecker-Stampehl on keyboards. More information can be found on their webpage, http://www.favni.de.

2) A noisy psych folk pop hybrid unit (based in Leeds, UK) built on strong tea, posh biscuits & jumpers. Once described as 'Cowboy Rock mash up Music'...fauns play all original material. With musical nods to bands such as Love, Flaming Lips 13th Floor Elevators, The Fall, Brian Jonestown.
And other, more diverse acts such as Bert Jansch, Oysterband, JAMC, Villagers and psych folk.
