Regarded as one of the foremost folk rock bands emanating from Wales, Here Be Dragons' live shows have had crowds dancing and partying in festivals and venues all across Europe and in the USA.
Here Be Dragons try to be true to their culture and heritage, not as a museum exhibit but in a way that’s a more honest reflection of what it means to be Welsh in the twenty-first century
Whilst still respecting their Celtic roots. Using acoustic instruments like banjos, mandolins, fiddles and accordions alongside drums and electric bass in a way that’s far from most people’s idea of a Celtic folk-rock band; the emphasis is much more on the rock style of presentation. They sing in both Welsh and English and play mainly original songs but also include a couple of traditional ones like ‘Sosban Fach,’ and interpret them with all the power they deserve.
They have released three CDs "Alcohol & Rain", "Celtic Bonding" and the new album "Bright New Tomorrow". You can buy these and get free mp3s
from their Website www.herebedragons.info
