What Faira does certainly isn’t Folk in a classic sense.
She constructs her complex and harmonically demanding songs more in the manner of an indie-artist, than a songwriter. As a result she succeeds in remarkably adventurous and daring compositions that convince by their captivating melodies and unusual chord changes.“ Ulrich Maurer, gästeliste.de
