The Pagan folk band FAUN is excited to release their new single, "Lament," a track that delves into darker emotional territory. With "Lament," FAUN taps into the mournful power of myth, ritual, and grief, reimagining an old pre-Christian mourning song from northern England. The single is accompanied by a new music video, available below.
The band has extended the original song with additional verses, transforming it into an epic and emotional dirge enriched with choirs, drums, and traditional instruments.
On the new single, FAUN comments:
"With a choir of four singers from FAUN, a hurdy-gurdy, flute, key fiddle and lure (Celtic long trumpet), we dedicated this song to our friend and sound engineer, Jürgen Schneider, who tragically passed away in 2023, after more than 10 years of traveling and concerts together."
