Helo Peikluts. Dyma dudalen arbennig ar gyfer ffrindiau Hanner Pei. I'r rhai sydd efallai'n cofio'r gigiau chwyslyd yn Clwb Ifor Bach: y ffync, y chwd a'r disco biscuits...i'r rhai sy'n cofio Slot Sadwrn ag Eisteddfod Y Wuddgrug. Ac i'r rhai ohonoch sydd ddim (fel rhan fwyaf ohonom ni), dyma brofiad newydd sgleiniog ag ysgytwol. Cewch glywed straeon diri am ddwyn caws o service stations a threfnwyr gigs yn yfed piss. Hefyd blant, dyma gyfle i chi glywed caneuon cnawdol y band rhyfeddol hwn. Felly, trowch eich speakers i fyny, gwisgwch eich Marigolds a thynwch eich trowsus i lawr am haliad nostalgic a chrac...Hanner Pei: dathlu bod yn groovy!
_____________________________________________________________
Hanner Pei began its journey through the anus of funk and rock in the late 80s, just as James Taylor, The Brand New Heavies and London Boys were lubing up their pecks for Christmas. But Hanner Pei were different: their funk was a Welsh funk. And therefore, a brand new musical genre was born: Funk, in Welsh.
This funk was delivered TO and became popular IN all four courners of the land, and soon Hanner Pei were stitting on top of what seemed an enormous cake. In fact, it was a white Bedford van.
They soon launched into the creation of their first album - "Locsyn" - on cassette; with the use of parents' funds and a harpist's Volvo.
Three cassette albums later, in the wake of a few dwindling careers in medicine, the media and metalwork, Hanner Pei return: fatter, slower, angrier.
So keep watching!
Also: t-shirts and new CD available here!
