Cerys Hafana is a composer and multi-instrumentalist who mangles, mutates, and transforms traditional music. She explores
the creative possibilities and unique qualities of the triple harp, and is also interested in found sounds, archival materials and electronic processing.
She comes from Machynlleth, Wales, where rivers and roads meet on the way to the sea.
Cerys has won over audiences from End of the Road, Green Man to the Eisteddfod and from BBC 6 Music Festival to Celtic Connections with her magical, progressive sound.
Edyf, her second album, drew inspiration from material found in the Welsh National Library’s online archive, including fragments of Psalm tunes, hymns about doomsday and philosophical musings on the length of eternity, along with some original compositions, and was selected as one of The Guardian’s Top Ten folk albums of 2022.
Cerys’ latest EP, The Bitter, released earlier in 2024 is an
innovative exploration of some dark English and Scottish ballads.
Hafana explores resonances from the past that connect with the modern day in a contemporary, creative way... she uses her harp as a percussive, jagged-toothed tool… sings movingly, her high voice like an indie-pop soprano shorn of its sweetness.’
Jude Rogers, The Guardian.
