Last night (January 13th - the Celtic New Year!) I was fortunate enough to spend an hour in the company of an old friend from the English Folk scene, Genevieve Tudor. Genevieve has a wonderful folk music programme on Radio Shropshire every Sunday night at 6pm, and we had a lovely chat about all things ‘Welsh folky’ and of course the new album, Cymun. Thanks Genevieve for the opportunity to talk about my music on a programme over the border so to speak - diolch!
It was so good to get out to be honest after a rather hermit like period over Christmas and New Year thanks to a particularly nasty bug which got the better of Llywelyn (our youngest son) and me! Whew! Not nice....!
Never mind, we’re on the mend now!
I do hope that most of you had a bug-free holidays.
Also, below I’ve listed the various concerts and projects that I’ll be part of during the next few weeks, just in case you’re interested.
Take care x

On the 12th I’ll be giving a bit of a talk and singing a few songs for the group.
