mmm, bad times. I believe this is still a fairly new band and with an impact like this...it might be a little tough to recover. But RIP. Crying or Very sad

Snow fairy was my fave Fairy Tail OP. In fact, the flute was pretty prominent in that, now that I think about it.
And I remember watching the official video for the song with all the band members....
Really sad. R.I.P.

It was of the roots/folk/rock fusion sound in "Snow Fairy" that made me a fan of Funkist in the first place.

This is a sad day to hear about this. Sad

My thoughts & Prayers go out to Yōko's Family, friends and the other members of Funkist.
