Sounds Like"Accompanied by piano and bass, or occasionally playing guitar alone, she delivered a set of songs drawn from sources as diverse as Welsh hymnody and Bob Dylan as well as her own compositions. This is the sort of gig that couldn't have happened at pre-Cheltenham Greenbelt, with the delicacy and clarity of the performance needing a proper concert hall rather than a tent. Most of the songs were sung in Welsh, and in one of the English songs she drew a tongue-in-cheek portrait of the record executives' assessment of her music - "The language that you sing/It won't bring in the bling" - but this didn't seem to put off the audience even at an English festival. Stylistically, Lleuwen's performance ranged from classically-tinged hymnody, gentle blues and jazz and with one up-tempo jazz number given added rhythm by a guesting beatboxer. With the right backing, Lleuwen could be a star in the same mould as Eva Cassidy or even another Greenbelt discovery, Corinne Bailey Rae. But I have to say that the record executives are probably right about the language barrier." GREENBELT : THE MUSIC REVIEWS "Steffan, blessed with a voice of archetypal Welsh beauty—sim

WOW - love your sound - especially the song "Dy Gynnel Di" - totally brilliant!!! Also really like the production and tonal direction you've taken! And of course, your guitar playing and voice are beautiful too!

Hope you dig our sound too - this week we're featuring the acoustic-based music from our catalog. Check out the songs "So True" and "By Your Side", I think you'd enjoy them.

Oh yeah, thanks for the add. Keep up the great work - lookin' forward to hearing more from you!

Diolch,

it is on my Olympia live (1972...), about the come back home of the Breton duke Jean IV from his exile in England : a bit of Breton pride and joy as well as a good exemple of the foreign policy, which was, all along the Middle Ages, a difficult balance between the two powerful and dreadfull neighbourgs (French and English).

A chwyl,
alan

Diolch i ti, ti'n angel - un ddrwg weithie, ond nhw yw'r angylion gore...! Es i am drip i Benmon am rhyw awren cyn nadolig, meddwl amdano ti - ond dim signal i ffonio. Lle hyfryd, o'dd yr haul yn mynd i lawr a pobol yn gadel lampiau papur i fynd yn y gwynt ger y goleudy. O'n i'n gallu dychmygu ti'n byw 'na yn rhwydd. Caru ti xxx
