They're amazing Viking

Hej Krissy, you should change their lineup: Birgit is long time out of the band and Lisa left too.
Sandra Elflein is in for her, vocals and violin.

Well, I saw them the first time without Lisa yesterday, Sandra sounds pretty different. Not bad, really not bad, I like her, but it's kinda different.

for Birgit: Birgit leaving is already mentioned there.. but ill correct bout the other, thx Viking

I've discovered recently Faun, and I love them for their originality, and the calm of their music.
On stage, they look like excellent!

I'd love to see them live! Hope I could in May but i don't think I will.../
