SIOE NEWYDD // CERYS HAFANAWe’re over the moon to announce that Cerys Hafana is coming to CWRW in March, supported by Warm Leveret! Tickets can be bought here: https://www.seetickets.com/event/cerys-hafana-warm-leveret/cwrw/3238635
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 Green Man to the Eisteddfod and from BBC 6 Music Festival to Celtic Connections with her magical, progressive sound. Her second album Edyf was selected as one of The Guardian’s Top Ten albums of 2022, as well as receiving widespread media attention and critical acclaim.
“She’s an adept shapeshifter, entwining tradition with direct and personal interpretations to create music that’s both progressive, profound and inspiring” - Alex Gallagher, Folk Radio UK
“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.

Warm Leveret makes soft noise that is songless and meditative. The setup is minimal, the only elements being voice and harp. Her voice is sampled & looped and the unpolished harp is pushed through fuzz and delay. Warm Leveret lives in the hills of Radnorshire and is otherwise known as Emma Daman Thomas of the band Islet.
