   About Primaeval
I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 Primaeval "opened with an hanter dro; where everyone links together and grooves into an ever decreasing spiral and back out again, like a snake wrapping around itself. The drum starts to drive the rhythm and a sense of tribal oneness unfurls into the Arabic ambience cast by the hurdy-gurdy. The crowd dances and moves in unison as the pastoral oboe cracks into the stratosphere with its dizzy, electrifying sound standing up the hairs on the back of my neck. The music has a structure capable of inducing a state of trance, almost hypnotic, especially in the group dances where this feeling is channelled back through the communal rhythm of the dancers."

During a British Council sponsored tour of Ukraine Primaeval played at the Krayina Mriy and Sheshory festivals where they proved to be "one of the biggest draws of the day." Songlines

The mandolin is a nice quiet instrument that is easily drowned out.
It's perfect for me x

Still open for bands!!!
One of Wales’ biggest and newest events, encompassing 2 days, 4 stages, 60 bands, and the capacity for 3000 people!
The festival is for charity, with proceeds going partly to help projects in the local community and partly to help young musicians in the area, with advertising, their equipment, etc. The ethos is very much that it is run like a community, so people helping each other out rather to help cut down the exchange of cash. We aim to work with ethical companies, aim to actively promote both welsh music, and environmental issues and solutions.
Check it out at www. thesquarefestival. com
And get in touch for further details.
