Triawd Gwilym Bowen Rhys Trio

Gwilym Bowen Rhys has established himself as an ambassador for Welsh language song both at home in Wales and across the world, confirmed by his nomination for the Folk Singer of the Year Award in the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. Gwilym has been singing in his native Welsh language since he can remember, giving him a deep connection with the traditional songs and music of his native land.

Performing as a trio with Patrick Rimes on fiddle (Calan, VRi, ALAW) and Gwen Mairi on harp, Gwilym’s songs are presented in an intimate, carefully balanced setting. The arrangements are restrained and attentive, but also powerful and energetic, drawing from the rich Welsh folk tradition whilst remaining contemporary.

Support Act - Elin and Carys

Elin and Carys are sisters and their close, ethereal harmonies and arrangements of folk songs and original songs draw on their musical upbringing and the landscapes of Mid Wales. Elin and Carys weave guitar, piano, banjo, fiddle, accordion, and whistles into their performances and they have just released their first EP called 'Hela'r dryw,' with Sain records.
