Since its inception in 1996, Narnia has played its melodic metal in large parts of the world and over the years toured with bands such as Dio, Stratovarius and Stryper. Known for energetic concerts and an uncompromising faith, they have established themselves both in the hard rock world in general and in church contexts. In autumn 2023, the band returned home from their third tour in Latin America, where their ninth studio album “Ghost Town” was released earlier in the same year. During 2024, the band continues to play festivals in Europe and plan for upcoming tours in 2025, when the band’s tenth studio album is also expected to be ready.
The band has had a number of lineup changes over the years but the current members are:
• Christian Liljegren: Vocals
