The band's performances utilise chanted vocals and often employ the use of a variety of different instruments including the Celtic harp, nyckelharpa, lyres, bagpipes, Japanese taiko, cister, Pagan zither, flutes and Arabic instruments such as the dombra, rebab, riq, oud, darabukka and bendir.
Faun's roots in medieval music, combined with their influences drawn from Celtic folk, contemporary rock and Arabic rhythmic tones and fused with driving beats has gained the band a quickly-growing crowd of followers.
Faun was founded in early 2002 in Munich, Germany, and has since performed at more than four-thousand shows in a variety of locales, including festivals, medieval markets, concert halls and churches throughout Europe.

Faun was also a late 1960's studio project featuring George Tickner and Ross Valory (ex-Frumious Bandersnatch), both of whom would later be in the original line-up of Journey. Their sound was a unique blend of pop, jazz, 1930's swing and psych.
Zeit nach dem Sturm
Faun Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ist alles was zählt.
Es hat Bedeutung,
ob ein Verlorener fehlt.
Alles ist einfach.
Alles ist leicht.
Niemand wird lernen,
Schließe die Augen,
was du siehst bleibt bei dir.
Die Zeit nach dem Sturm,
ich danke dem Regen dafür.
Ich folge den Wolken.
Ich ziehe umher.
Ich trage den Regen
für dich hinunter zum Meer.
The first verse of Faun's song "Zeit nach dem Sturm" speaks about resilience and the importance of moving forward. The line "Weiter zu gehen, ist alles was zählt" ("Moving forward is everything that counts") encapsulates this message. The second line, "Es hat Bedeutung, ob ein Verlorener fehlt" ("It matters if a lost one is missing"), speaks to the idea that everyone is valuable and should be missed when they are gone. The idea of valuing every person ties in with the message of the importance of resilience, which encourages people to keep going, even in the face of adversity, because each person matters.
The second verse speaks of simplicity and forgiveness. The lines "Alles ist einfach. Alles ist leicht" ("Everything is simple. Everything is easy") suggest that things can be uncomplicated and unburdened. The next line, "Niemand wird lernen, wenn niemand verzeiht" ("No one will learn if no one forgives"), suggests that forgiveness is essential for growth and transformation. The message is that forgiving ourselves and others makes it easier to keep moving forward.
The chorus is about finding beauty in the aftermath of the storm. The line "Schließe die Augen, was du siehst bleibt bei dir" ("Close your eyes, what you see stays with you") suggests that the memories of the storm stay with you, even when you can no longer see it. Then the singer thanks the rain for what it brought to his life, even though it caused the storm. The chorus shows the importance of finding beauty where you might not expect it.
Overall, "Zeit nach dem Sturm" is a song about resilience, forgiveness, and finding beauty in the aftermath of difficult times.
