Fai Baba

Fai Baba has fallen in love. With life! And sets this feeling to music with the Swiss string quartet Amour sur Mars (Brandão Faber Hunger, Black Sea Dahu). “Fäderliecht” is the name of the new album and is the second Swiss-German release by the KEXP-experienced musician from Zurich after “Veränderet”. Swiss Neo Folk becomes Swiss Chamber Pop. At the centre of it all: love, trust and hope without fear of what is to come.

The songs are inspired by a colourful bouquet: Philip Glass. Moondog. The Beatles’ “Strawberry Fields Forever”. “Sugarman” by Sixto Rodriguez. Alice Coltrane. Electric and acoustic guitars, Fender amps, analogue gear. And finally, the Binson Echorec. A tube-driven disc echo effects unit from the 60s, made famous by Pink Floyd.

In short, Swiss music you have never heard it before. Simply light as a feather – “Fäderliecht”! Eifach devo und tschüss! (Simply split and say goodbye).
