Pys Melyn released “Bywyd Llonydd”, the band’s first album in 2021, which drew on a variety of global influences and was nominated for a Welsh Music Prize. They released their second album ‘Bolmynydd’ in August 2023, which draws on a more traditional range of 60’s/70’s influences. After releasing ‘Bolmynydd’, Pys Melyn toured around the UK and Brittany, playing venues like the Garage in London and Tough Trade Bristol. In 2024 they recorded a BBC6Music session for Riley and Coe, supported Gruff Rhys on his tour and Spiritualised at Focus Wales, as well as a host of festivals and gigs across the UK in the summer. The band are looking forward to releasing new music in 2024 with a third album on the way.

Nature Kids have released 3 new singles since the start of the year and the Leeds outfit have subsequently been awarded slots at this year's Green Man Festival. Recent shows have also included a rare opportunity to perform at Wakefield's Hepworth Gallery. Nature Kids look forward to recording and releasing their debut album over the next couple of months.

Anneka Shelley’s haunting voice and thoughtful lyrics combine to create a very enjoyable listening experience. Supported by her 5-piece band, she evokes heartbreaking emotion in anyone watching her while still performing a driven set with a blend of downtempo and upbeat songs.
