Faust IV - Live at Le Guess Who? 2021
The cult album Faust IV was the fourth studio album released by the German krautrock group in 1973. Reimagining the music from the iconic album, Faust IV was performed live at Le Guess Who? 2021 as part of the curated program by OSEES' John Dwyer. Faust IV Live! captured the strange magic that then and now defines Faust as an entity unto themselves.
You can now relive the performance through our concert film premiered by The Wire (featuring the songs 'Psalter', 'Just A Second', 'Jennifer') as well as the audio of the full performance below:
