Singing black-lit liturgies of bog bodies caked in mud, entranced by nocturnal landscapes flickering in the moon-glow and powered by queer enchantment, Tristwch y Fenywod are a Welsh-language gothic avant-rock power-coven. Exhumed from the depths of Leeds’ experimental underground, the trio consists of Gwretsien Ferch Lisbeth (Guttersnipe, The Ephemeron Loop), Leila Lygad (Hawthonn) and Sidni Sarffwraig (Slaylor Moon, The Courtneys).
Although originally from North Wales, Gwretsien (a member of "xenofeminist crisis energy rock" duo Guttersnipe, along with her solo projects The Ephemeron Loop and Petronn Sphene, plus other groups such as La Brea Pulpit, Swimming Wraith, Cletwisp, BAND and others) has lived in Leeds since 2013 where she soon met Leila (a member of "21st century moon musick" duo Hawthonn and more recently of folk/ritual/avant-garde group Hexham Heads). Both of them are long time prolific members of the Leeds DIY underground music scene. In 2018 Gwretsien and Sidni (originally from Canada, currently performing solo as Slaylor Moon and formerly of noise rock band Shearing Pinx and indie rock band The Courtneys) met and became a couple, then forming the experimental duo Two Form a Click. After a period of collective grief around various personal circumstances of loss and bereavement, they decided to form Tristwch Y Fenywod in early 2022, with the intention to use the Welsh language and Gwretsien's memories of her formative years in North Wales to explore, without setting any particular limits, ideas such as sapphic love and desire, existential darkness, visionary use of psychedelics, political and environmental anguish/celebration, psychogeographic romance, pagan mysticism, imaginal explorations of Celtic history and myth, psychedelia and myriad other variations of reverie.
