NEW SONG “BLOT” – OUT NOW!

Our new song “Blot” is OUT NOW!

You can stream the song on all platforms here

The video premiers on Sunday at 5:30 PM CET – join us for a live chat around 4:30 PM – find it here

„Blót“ is an old Norse word meaning „sacrifice“. There are also special feast days in the culture of the Vikings in which ritual „sacrifices“ were offered to create a balance between „giving“ and „taking“. FAUN set very old texts to music here, such as the „Heimskringla“ from the 13th century or the „Strassburger Blutsegen“! from the 11th century. Together with old instruments, such as moraharpa, hurdy-gurdy and flutes and polyphonic choirs, an insight into the musical world and pagan culture of ancient Northern Europe is provided here.

Yours, FAUN

NEW SONG “UMAY” FEAT. FATMA TURGUT – OUT NOW!

We just released our new song & video “UMAY” together with the great turkish singer “Fatma Turgut”. „UMAY“ is the name of an ancient fertility goddess.

The earliest mention of this goddess appears in the 8th century in the Orkhon inscriptions. These are texts in ancient Turkic runes on a large rune stone in Mongolia.
With this song we want to take you back into the world of Tengriism, the ancient animistic religion of the Turkic peoples and Mongols from Central Asia.
So we really hope that you like this musical journey!

Yours, FAUN

Neue Single & Musikvideo “Neun Welten”

We are very proud to present you our new song “Neun Welten”.

“Neun Welten” is a very special, significant song for us, as it stands, in addition to the motif of the “Nine Worlds” in Norse mythology, above all for a tremendous journey, which must be covered in the course of a catharsis.

In this case, it leads back to oneself, one’s own roots – the “pure heart”.

We are also very proud of the music video, which you can find here:

New Single – FAUN “Halloween”

Our time is becoming increasingly fast-paced.
In order not to lose the connection to mother earth, we believe it is important to become aware of the change of the seasons with the help of Wheel-of-the-year-celebrations.
Samhain / Halloween is such a holiday that can help us to tune into the dark half of the year and to remember our ancestors and roots.
We therefore hope our song and video called “Halloween”, we created a helper to remind us  how important, wonderful and magickal such festivals and rituals can be.
Be it with a little incense burning at home with mugwort, with appropriate songs or with wild dances around the fire, we wish you a blessed Samhain / Halloween night and would be happy if you share our video diligently, so that more people will find access to the ancient magick again.
Yours, FAUN.

 

31.10.21
Neues Live Video – FAUN “Pearl”

Summer is here and even some festivals for 2021 are comfirmed.
Nevertheless, we have to announce that we have to postpone the five remaining „Märchen & Mythen Tour“ concerts, which we had to postpone already to autumn 2021 due to Covid.

We apologize once again for the inconvenience and hope that everyone will find time on the new dates for an evening with us and our songs from the realm of fairy tales.
The tickets will of course remain valid.

„TAMLIN“ – a new FAUN Song

Due to the corona crisis we’re facing (for the first time in our band history) a summer without concerts. Therefore we decided to release a brand new FAUN song on Bandcamp.

“Tamlin” is an old Scottish ballad about a young man who has been robbed by the queen of fairies.

You can not only listen to to the full version of „Tamlin“ on Bandcamp, but by donating 4 € or more you can stream the song on Bandcamp more than three times and download it in a good quality. Therefore we would be very grateful if you would help us through these hard times by purchasing our song.
PLEASE ALSO SHARE THIS POS! so that as many people as possible get to know about „Tamlin“.
We’re truly missing the concerts and especially YOU (!) very much these days.

See you hopefully very soon again,
Yours, FAUN.

FAUN MÄRCHEN & MYTHEN GERMANY TOUR POSTPONED AGAIN

Due to the current pandemic, we unfortunately had no chance but to postpone the remaining five concerts of our “Märchen & Mythen Deutschland Tour” for another time.

The remaining concerts  will therefore not take place in September 2020, but on the following dates:

17.09.2021 Halle – Händel Halle
18.09.2021 Erfurt – Alte Oper
19.09.2021 Berlin – Admiralspalast
20.09.2021 München – Circus Krone
15.10.2021 Chemnitz – Stadthalle

Tickets and seat reservations stay valid. 

We apologize once again for any inconvenience caused by the postponed shows. 

This has been a very difficult and unpleasant decision to us as well but unfortunately it is impossible for us to play the dates in September 2020. We tried hard and luckily managed to find worthy alternative dates in these very popular concert halls.
These times aren’t easy, but we remain optimistic and look forward to 2021!

Yours, FAUN.

03.07.20
A NEW FAUN – ADAYA

We are very happy to introduce our newest band member: Adaya!

She is not only a great singer and songwriter, she also plays the celtic harp, bagpipes, various flutes, bouzouki, guitar, bodhran, banjo, lyra and many more.

Considering herself a musical citizen of the world, having strong roots in Celtic tradition.

Adaya has already released two solo CDs and been on the road for many years with medieval bands, such as the great “Kel Amrun”. With her warm folk voice and her instrumental skills we found ourselves underlying her spell immediately.

So we are already writing new songs together and may announce at this point that – also due to a label change –  our musical journey will be rougher, more folk and a lot more archaic again.

If you want to get more information about Adaya and her solo project, please visit her homepage at: www.adaya.net
We are looking forward to our upcoming adventures and welcome Adaya in the family,

Yours, Faun.

Postponed Tourdates due to Covid-19

On April 15th, German government issued a statement that major events will be banned until August 31st 2020. The number of people from which a big event is too big to be held will be decided individually by the single states. This means that it cannot be foreseen yet, whether, for example, the gathering of 900 peacefully celebrating faun fans in July will be possible underneath the open sky in a manor in Thuringia. As soon as we know that a date will be cancelled for sure, we will announce it immediately on our homepage and on the social media platforms – along with an alternative date at the very same time.
The already purchased tickets remain valid!
We apologize for the inconvenience and ask for your understanding in this not easy time for us either.
Enjoy the spring as much as you can, stay healthy and see you soon,
Yours, Faun.

A NEW FAUN: LAURA FELLA
FAUN’s Katja Moslehner, who was with us since the CD “Von den Elben” have decided to go separate ways. We wish Katja the very best of luck on her musical journey and would like to say thanks for all the years and adventures that we’ve shared together.
If you like to stay informed about Katja’s music, visit her at: www.katjamoslehner.de
As a replacement, we now present you LAURA FELLA, who will join us on stage from 2017 onwards. We were acquainted with Laura for quite a little while. She is not only a great musician, but also her character is fitting very much to FAUN. Like us, she loves folk and especially the celtic and nordic music. She is not only a great singer, but also plays the Mandola and frame drums. During the last months she was with our friends, Eluveitie, as a singer at their concerts. Prior to that, she was on the road with many other bands.
You can see Laura’s debut appearence on stage with us at the MIDGARD TOUR.

Our next two concerts will be under open skies again at the beautiful medieval festival MPS in Bückeburg & Karlsruhe.
We are much looking forward to it, yours FAUN.

FAUN “VON DEN ELBEN” GOES PLATINUM
Wow!!! what beautiful summer days and what amazing news. Our CD “Von den Elben” got a Platinum Award.
Our big thank you, to everybody who was involved in this success.
Years ago, when we were sitting at the bonfires and sang songs of noble knights, trolls and nature religion, we would have never even dared to dream about such a success.
So we raise our glasses, to everyone who was helping us and also to everybody who was listening to our songs and visited us at our concerts. This mesmerizing adventure “FAUN” doesn’t stop to surprise and enchant us. Therefore we already looking forward to the next chapters in this wonderful book called “FAUN” and of course we still sing our songs of noble knights, trolls and nature religion with our deepest conviction and from the bottom of our hearts. Yours FAUN.

FAUN “LUNA” NOMINATED FOR THE ECHO (MUSIC AWARD)
Just a couple of days ago so many people crossed their fingers for our participation at the Eurovision Song contest preshow, and now comes the next event. We are nominated for the biggest German music award the “Echo” in the category “Rock/Pop Band national”. We think we won’t have a big chance against German music giants like “die Fantastischen Vier”, but still we are honoured to be nominated with such a personal and mystic CD like “LUNA”.
Therefore, a big thank you to everybody who participated in “LUNA” and to the people, fans and friends, who stayed by our side for all those years.
On 26th of March we will be in Berlin for the awards. You can follow the show live on German TV at ARD 8:15 pm.
Yours FAUN

FAUN LUNA TOUR
Thank you very much!!!
Although we organized and rehearsed for many months, we never knew how everything will work out in the end. We would have never guessed that everything would work out that well. Therefore a big THANK-YOU to the best crew in the world, to everybody who helped us realize this tour and to the enthusiastic audience. The first two sold out shows were amazing and maybe the most important part in this might be the absolutely euphoric atmosphere in the venues.
Dear Faun audience, you are the best!!!
Today we will rest a day and than our tour will continue to Bamberg, Würzburg, Bielefeld, Hannover and many other cities. Looking forward very keenly, yours FAUN.

FAUN AFTER THE ESC PRESHOW
The German Eurovision Song Contest is over, we didn’t win but we were in a very good mood. It was an exciting and surreal evening, which was a lot of fun.
We are happy to experience such a lot of support by our fans, families, by other bands of our scene and many old friends.
Therefore a very BIG THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!
It was a pleasure to share the stage with so many gifted and friendly colleagues.
Now we are already in Kiel. Tonight is the first concert of our LUNA TOUR. The first two shows are already sold out.
Again, thank you, yours FAUN.
06.03.15
FAUN AT THE EUROVISION SONG CONTEST PRESHOW 5th Mar. 2015, 8.15pm on ARD (German TV)
We will participate in this huge TV event, that decides, which band is going to represent Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest.
Germany has such a beautiful heritage of poetry and traditional folk music. From our very early days on, we got a huge part of our inspiration from this cultural heritage. Therefore we believe, that we would be a good choice to represent Germany at the ESC.
We will participate with our two songs “Hörst du die Trommeln” and “Abschied”. Right now we build a big wooden stage decoration ourselves. We rearranged the two songs, rehearse a lot and are pretty nervous about this big TV event with more than 5 Million viewers. We also know, that this world of glamour and big TV shows will never be our home and that we would feel much more comfortable at a medieval market instead. But we believe in what we do. We believe, that we can raise an interest there for myths and fairy tales and that theses myths of mermaids, elves and ghosts that dwell under a full moon do make our world more alive. And only a world that is perceived as alive will get the respect that it deserves to be protected and valued.
So please help us, watch the show and call for us, because the winner will be selected by telephone votings.
This might be a very big opportunity for us and for sure another crazy adventure on this marvelous journey.
Yours FAUN.

FAUN LUNA – Live & Acoustic in Berlin (release: 27.2.2015)
While rehearsing our LUNA TOUR last November we discovered that some of the LUNA songs sound fantastic as a stripped down acoustic version. We simply wanted to record them and thus organized a small acoustic concert in Berlin last December 2014, where we positioned a lot of microphones.

On the 27th February 2015 we will release this recorded session as “FAUN LUNA – live & acoustic in Berlin”. We decided to do this as a double CD including the Standard edition of LUNA, because LUNA has a lot of meaning and depth for us, including the artwork, the explanation texts and the wholeness of the songs. To only release a few of these songs separated from the rest would not have felt right for us. But we will release this double CD in a noble digipack, only 1,- Euro more expensive than the regular price for a single CD in a plastic jewel case. On the bonus CD are 7 Acoustic songs from the Berlin session, the 2 songs that we re-recorded and rearranged for the Eurovision song contest and one remix of Walpurgisnacht by the genious Christopher Juul (Euzen, Valravn).

We are already looking forward to this acoustic gem and wish you lovely moonlit nights with it, yours FAUN.
