About

Immerse yourself in an enchanting world as the mesmerising quartet CALAN grace our stage with their unique brand of power-folk. This musical odyssey combines original tunes and songs with ancient melodies unearthed from the National Library of Wales. Join us for an extraordinary evening featuring tracks from their highly anticipated album, ‘Nefydd’.

CALAN’s versatility is legendary. From intimate house concerts to the grandiose Royal Albert Hall, becoming modern day folk heroes themselves. They notably graced operatic superstar Sir Bryn Terfel’s most recent album, marking their triumphant return to the musical forefront.

Internationally acclaimed CALAN emerge with a new, captivating narrative; ancient tales of Welsh mythology are meticulously brought to life, transcending the pages of folklore to resonate through the enchanting melodies of harp, guitar, fiddle, accordion, and song. ‘Nefydd’ tells stories of murderous princes, thieving highwaymen and the triumphant resurgence of the heart of Welsh folklore.

Accompanying CALAN on the their autumn tour: The Marcellas

The electro acoustic three piece band from Merthyr Tydfil will open the show with their current set of original music written by themselves with some different takes on a few favourite covers, influenced  by a range of artists from Little Feat and Led Zeppelin to Florence and the Machine and First Aid Kit.

The band comprises of two sisters Bethan and Delyth McLean, singing blood harmonies and playing a mix of guitar, bass and percussion and their uncle Karl Pulman playing lead guitar and drums.
