FeHu

FeHu Paganfolk is a folk-pagan project born in 2015 on the shores of Lake Garda (Northern Italy), founded and artistically led by composer and multi-instrumentalist Jordi Tambara. The band blends traditional music, storytelling and human spirituality into a unique artistic path that turns life experiences into sound and narrative.

The debut album, Speire Milis, is an abstract and instinctive work, shaped by innocence and unawareness – a record that expresses a young, free and unfiltered vision. With the second album, La Historia Pesenea, FeHu Paganfolk takes a decisive narrative step forward: music becomes story, and each song contributes to a wider tale of friendship, youthful drive and simple but sincere spirituality. From that point on, every FeHu release becomes a concept journey with its own identity and moral core.

The FeHu philosophy is based on a non-dogmatic, experiential spirituality: it is living itself – through both light and shadow – that leads to growth and awareness. This vision is reflected in the band’s sound, which draws from Nordic, Celtic, Mediterranean, Caucasian and Middle Eastern folk traditions, creating a musical language that feels both ancient and contemporary. Nature is central to the project’s imagery – not just a backdrop, but a primal force that has shaped the human way of feeling, imagining and creating.

Live, FeHu Paganfolk delivers an intense yet accessible experience. Their shows combine emotional depth with a spontaneous, ironic and highly participatory spirit. Even when the music explores darker or more introspective themes, the atmosphere remains human, warm and alive: there is no barrier between stage and audience, only a shared space of celebration and connection.

In recent concerts, the band has also begun to include subtle hints of new material in development, offering the audience a discreet and evocative sneak peek of what is yet to come.
