Frændur - Rani Nolsøe - The Midsummer Festival in the Faroes 2009

I took this photo at the Midsummer Festival in Tvøroyri on the 27th of June 2009. The members of the band Frændur are: Eyðun Nolsøe, Steintór Rasmussen, Rani Nolsøe, Johannus á Rógvu, James Olsen and Kim Hansen. On this photo: Rani Nolsøe.
Frændur was very popular in the Faroe Islands in the 1980'ies and the beginning of the 90'ies too. But they are still going strong! There were so many people in the marina of Tvøroyri at the Midsummer Festival, The Jóansøkufestival, and everybody knew the lyrics to all of the songs, it was so good to experience! The Faroese people love to sing, we sing Faroese songs to parties, and the songs of Frændur are always represented. The theme of the songs is mostly "love for our nation" and "love and peace".
You can hear some of the most popular songs of Frændur on YouTube without video. The lyrics are in Faroese, so if you are not Faroese I don't think you will understand so much, but you can try :)
