Biography

Kauan started by Anton Belov (Helengard, inea) in February 2005 and up to this moment had changed their name and genre - they started as a folk black band, then moved to the direction of folk doom with their sophomore album, and could now be considered as a folk rock band.

In September 2006 Lubov Mushnikova joined the band as a violin player. The band has worked with other people as well but none of them eventually fit the band’s conception. During the recording of their first album some session members were invited to play cello and saxophone.

After the release of the first album, “Lumikuuro” (BadMoodMan Music, 2007), Alexander Borovich left the band. By now Kauan have recorded their second album “Tietäjän laulu”, which was released by BMM Music in the late 2008.

In late 2009, Kauan released their third album, “Aava tuulen maa”. At this point the band changed their genre to atmospheric folk rock, post-rock with sad and melancholic variations which has always been a distinctive mark of Kauan

Current line-up:

Anton Belov – guitar, vocals, keys, programming
Lyubov Mushnikova – violin

    нет ничего удивительного в том что эти русские поют на финском. И это даже не дань уважения финам за Kypck. Просто в России петь тяжолую музыку принято петь на каком угодно только не на русском. Нация своего языка стесняется. А те кто всё же на русском и поёт принято считать отстоем. Ну вот так повелось

    @usal_bolgar: What on earth does being American (americal?) have to do with it?

    GiaNXGX, typical americal view. actually the first album is the worst one in Kauan's discography even though it's quite good. and if to create such masterpieces like their 3 last albums was necessary to break up with metal style, so let it be, not a bit pity.

    Lumikuuro is the best one, everything else is kinda boring atmospheric pagan folk-rock
