Fabienne Erni is the female lead vocalist and harpist for the Swiss folk metal band Eluveitie. She is also the lead vocalist and founder of Illumishade and a student of Complete Vocal Technique.[1]

Career

Erni joined Eluveitie in 2017[2] following the departure of former lead singer and hurdy-gurdy player Anna Murphy. She was recommended to Eluveitie founder Chrigel Glanzmann by Jonas Wolf, the current rhythm guitarist for Eluveitie. She recorded clean vocals and harp on Eluveitie's 2017 acoustic album Evocation II: Pantheon as well as their 2019 album Ategnatos. Since joining Eluveitie, she has consistently toured with the band and has taken on a position as frontwoman, often being the focus of the group's music videos and frequently giving interviews with other metal musicians on Eluveitie's official YouTube channel.

In 2019, Erni formed Illumishade, a symphonic metal band with Wolf and several other musicians as a part of her Masters' Degree program.[3] In May of 2020, Illumishade released a crowdfunded album titled Eclyptic: Wake of Shadows, whose songs detail a fictional fantasy world and the story within. Illumishade also launched a website featuring detailed lore of the fictional world in which their music is set. Erni has also lent her voice to several other music projects. These include Tvinna, an electronica prog pop group, Another Kind, a side project of Vadim "Vidick" Ozhog of Infected Rain, Off The Cross, a Belgian metalcore band, and Spandex of Doom, an 80's cover band of which Wolf is also a member.
