Gwenno is a vital voice in modern music, bridging the gap between ancient heritage and avant-garde synth-pop. Born in Cardiff to Welsh and Cornish parents, her solo work, including the breakthrough Y Dydd Olaf and the Mercury-shortlisted Tresor, is a defiant, dreamlike celebration of minoritised languages.
Her live shows are immersive experiences, weaving together lush electronics, driving krautrock rhythms, and soaring vocals. Whether she is exploring dystopian sci-fi themes or the intimacy of motherhood, Gwenno’s music remains profoundly evocative.
Don’t miss this captivating performance from a true pioneer of the Celtic experimental scene at this year’s Earagail Arts Festival.
