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 written as bespoke gifts for individual fans, with ancient melodies unearthed from the National Library of Wales.
Join us for an extraordinary evening featuring tracks from their highly anticipated album, ‘Nefydd’.
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.
After a 12-month hiatus, CALAN return with a sound reborn - a mythical phoenix rising and resonating through melody and song. This comeback is a heralding of new beginnings; a narrative embedded in the very soul of Welsh mythology.
CALAN's versatility is legendary; from intimate house concerts to the grandiose Royal Albert Hall, the band have become modern day folk heroes themselves. They also notably graced operatic superstar Sir Bryn Terfel's most recent album, marking their triumphant return to the musical forefront.
Don't miss this extraordinary comeback as CALAN weaves a spell of cultural richness, musical brilliance, and sheer joy.
Secure your tickets now for an experience that transcends borders and celebrates the soul-stirring melodies of Wales – a mythical journey reborn, where ancient tales are brought to life through Welsh music and song.
