Faun is a German band formed in 1998 known for performing medieval and pagan folk music with acoustic instrumentation and occasional electronic textures.

Uses bagpipes, flute, violin, acoustic guitar and tribal percussion; mixes medieval/pagan folk with vocal duets and occasional electronic/darkwave elements (as noted in reviews).

Two DeBaser reviews praise Faun's blend of medieval/pagan folk and evocative arrangements. Totem is highlighted for its darkwave touches; Renaissance for its acoustic, tribal, and melancholic textures.

For:Listeners interested in medieval/pagan folk, acoustic instrumentation, and darkwave-influenced ethereal music.

 The Faun are five Teutonic knights capable of bringing to light one of the most obscure and fascinating musical traditions of their homeland, namely a typically pagan/medieval folk that is often translated into modern terms through evident darkwave influences.
