Fate of Faith was founded in December 2016 by frontman Jonas Grünenfelder and former bass player Dominique Ackermann. In spring 2017 they got to know their current guitarist Noah Laternser via the "FindmyBand" website. After the official entry into the band, however, a one year-long dry spell followed. During this time no progress was made, written songs were not completed and there was not much activity. In the early summer of 2018, Jonas Grünenfelder registered the band for the 2018 Mischufe in Sargans. The ulterior move here was to leave the band after this gig due to the inactivity, but still be able play the written songs live at least one time. So the first appearance should also be the last. Patrick Sahin, who also played in Dominique Ackermann's second band, was hired for this performance. All songs were finished and practiced within 2 months. Even then, they wanted to create a little stage show, so they put together a small concept.

But after the performance everything turned out differently than planned. The positive feedback from viewers combined with the knowledge that something can be done together motivated the band to keep going.
