	Musicians - Faun Fables

Faun Fables is the name of the atmospheric, slightly witchy psych folk music of Dawn McCarthy. Currently on the Drag City label, her performances draw on many influences, from British, Scandanavian, Appalachian and Eastern European musics, like Ewa Demarczyk, to rockin' rock and dancin' disco explosions. Her shows often contain elements of theater - dances and puppet shows are common elements. She is often lumped in with other neo-psych-folk artists like Devendra Banhart and Current 93.

Her main collaborator is Nils Frykdahl (of Sleepytime Gorilla Museum). Her albums and shows also feature collaborations with family members Sheila McCarthy (of Autobody, Drumhead and Flaming Fire), Brian McCarthy and mother Michelina, Matt Waldron (of Irr App Ext), Robin Coomer (of Loopstation), Kirana Peyton (of Blackbird Stitches), and Noe Venable, among others.

Faun Fables has released three albums: Family Album (2004), Mother Twilight (2001) and Early Song (1999).
