About FAUN

01 Jul
FAUN is one of the world’s leading bands in the fusion of old sounds, medieval, celtic and nordic folk with modern music. With their very special sound they know how to make you feel like you are standing in front of a gate between world and you’ll just dance through it. They were nominated three times for the “Echo”, (Germany’s largest music award and their albums have done really well in the German charts. Needless to say, FAUN is big in Germany. Their last two albums were found in the top 10 of the German music charts.

FAUN has done many different shows, like e.g. seated concerts for theatres and classical venues, (FAUN ACOUSTIC) but also with a powerful festival set, with big drums and a mesmerizing light show for big festivals and events. You can often find them on the MPS in Germany where they always manage to put down an awesome show. If you want to see them play live in Holland, go to Castlefest !!! They will be playing there on the Saturday!

On Saturday, when we are not bringing you livestreams from shows and festivals, we will try to give a musician or band a little moment in the spotlight.

Today’s spotlight is focused on Kelten zonder Grenzen . Full of energy and a love for music this balfolk band has a sound of its own. With two harps, a hurdy-gurdy and drums they take you into another world of dance and smiles.

Kelten zonder Grenzen, will be playing at Castlefest this August on the Saturday and the Sunday.

We are going to tell you a little bit more about the musicians

25 Jun
We are starting up a little tradition here on Facebook that we have already been doing for almost a year on Instagram.

We are going to tell you a little bit more about the musicians you hear on our radio station and see in our livestreams.

Today we kick off with Pyrolysis ‘s Laurens ! Meet Laurens (or Laury, as we like to call him)! Laury is actually a classical pianist, and started in the band as keyboard player. At some point he just randomly picked up the accordion, because he’s just a bit of a random character like that. Oh and did you know: Laury actually does a PhD in mathematical biology when he’s not gigging!

Online: review: Harmony Glen – Live at Elfia

23 Jun
https://celtcast.com/harmony-glen-live-at-elfia-2018 “I love live albums. They capture that moment when the creative spirit of the musician meets the energy of the crowd. And when that connection is there, a band will feed of the energy to give their very best. It does not always happen, but every time when that connection ìs there it gives me goosebumps. I’ve been to several concerts where that electric energy was there between the band and us, the crowd and I remember them to this day. To catch something like that on a CD is just magic! When I heard that Harmony Glen was releasing a second live CD/DVD, knowing the cool positive energy they bring to the stage, and hearing that it was recorded at Elfia one of the bigger fantasy festivals in Holland, I was really looking forward to this CD. Did it live up to my expectations?
