Heard on the show
The Fauns are a Bristol shoegaze/dream-pop band formed in 2007 around singer Alison Garner, bassist Michael Savage and drummer Guy Rhys-Davies, with guitarist Will Slater. Their self-titled 2009 debut was released with almost no promotion on their own Laser Ghost label, yet it sold more than 5,000 copies on word of mouth alone, championed by BBC 6 Music's Steve Lamacq. 'Fragile' is the album's delicate centerpiece ballad, and it drew a remarkable admirer: film composer Clint Mansell (Requiem for a Dream, Moon) remixed it for a Record Store Day 12-inch on Invada in 2013. Their second album Lights (2013) and third, How Lost (January 2024), both came out on Invada, the Bristol label co-run by Portishead's Geoff Barrow, with the newest record adding electro and disco pulses under the guitar haze.
