Greenrose Faire

Greenrose Faire plays rousing Celtic folk rock with head-bobbing, toe-tapping rock feel. The Finnish sextet meshes mandolins and violin with rock drums and bass and symphonic synths, and spikes the rollicking attitude with the slightly ominous overtones of Finnish melancholy. Greenrose Faire sounds lively and modern but still tugs at the nostalgia strings for the long-gone days of yore.

Greenrose Faire plays jaunty folk rock, taking you on a journey to a world of ancient woods and solitary beaches as well as lively village markets and rowdy taverns.

The band has great fun on stage, and have played everywhere from corner pubs to concert halls, and from intimate weddings to international festivals, among others Elfia in The Netherlands (with e.g. Rapalje and Harmony Glen) and the Häme Medieval Fair six years in a row (with e.g. Värttinä and Korpiklaani) They also host an annual two-day Medieval Folk Festival of their own in Tampere.
