About Gaë Bolg and the Church of Fand
One of the many musical projects of frontman Eric Roger (others include Gaë Bolg, Sol Invictus, Seven Pines and L'Orchestre Noir), Gaë Bolg and the Church of Fand are held in high esteem by fans of the neofolk, neoclassical genre. Eric Roger is himself a music teacher, living in Paris, France. The music itself is difficult to categorize, although it could be described as neomedieval orchestration with a martial industrial edge. Never totally serious, the songs range from glockenspiel ditties to full on bombastic marches and everything in between. Gaë Bolg and the Church of Fand take their name from the spear of the Irish mythological figure Cúchulainn. Official site: http://www.myspace.com/gaebolg
