4) Faun were a progressive psychedelic group in the late 1960s, with ties to Frumious Bandersnatch. The band consisted of James Trumbo, George Tickner, Royal Martin, Don Banducci, Lynn Chatwin and Ross Valory (later of Journey?) The group originated in Mill Valley, San Francisco. Their sound, according to the liner notes of their 1968 album “seems to trip backward and forward through time”… ” a unique blend of pop, jazz, 1930 swing and the classics”.
