Beautiful folk music from the Orkney Islands, with sea spray and good stories.
WHERE: Lunch concert Thursday, The church concert Friday
FARA is a quartet consisting of four of Scotland's most successful folk musicians. Together they produce energetic and exciting music rooted in their upbringing and the traditional music from the Orkney Islands.
Their repertoire includes both newly written songs and traditional melodies from the Orkney Islands, and the band's beautiful, musical expression will suit the church room well. Fara has an international audience and has toured large parts of the world, and finally they are coming to Farsund!
In autumn 2022, they released their long-awaited third album "Energy Island". The album is inspired by the Orkney Islands' history and position as a leading nation in renewable energy.
A concert with Fara is varied, full of lively arrangements, energetic fiddle and piano playing, singing and good stories. You are sure to be delighted with this Scottish four-leaf clover!
