Big Chimney
Big Chimney
You can call this music old-timey, but good-timey is likely as appropriate when a top quality stringband get going – and Big Chimney, who hail from the Alaskan mountains, have earned themselves a strong rep through years of global touring. Fiddle, banjo, standup bass and guitar combine in the time-honoured Appalachian style.

Girli
Girli
According to Buzz’s review archives, Amelia Toomey aka Girli played Cardiff six years to the day (as I write), prompting Jasper Wilkins to muse: “If she keeps up her current trajectory, Girli may well be the future.” The ascendency from Clwb Ifor Bach to the Globe is fairly minor, size-wise, so this maybe didn’t quite …

Sonny Tennet
Sonny Tennet
Every UK city now either has a singer-songwriter guy who tries to go viral and/or get sports broadcast theme music placement by singing about their locale, or is going to have one soon. Sam Fender arguably does this for Newcastle already, but a challenger has appeared in Sonny Tennet, who just released inspiringly titled single …
Toby Lee
Toby Lee
Blues-rock fans seem to love it when a young guitarist appears and plays some ‘licks’. Toby Lee, now 19, has been doing this for nearly a decade and is no stranger to stages much bigger than this one: after starring in School Of Rock at the West End back in 2016, he’ll be supporting Jools …
Cwmwl Tystion III / Empathy
Cwmwl Tystion III / Empathy
Empathy is the third and final touring project devised by Welsh jazz trumpeter Tomos Williams, and for this observer’s money the most impressive musical assembly of all three. The first Cwmwl Tystion lineup, in 2019, drew from the Welsh jazz landscape, the second expanding into England; this time, Williams has pulled off two coups by …

Brujeria
Brujeria
Longrunning concept-metal extremists play what I think is their first ever Swansea show. With grindcore-y songs in Spanish about drug lords, serial killers etc Brujeria have featured several household names (by metal standards) over the years though Shane Embury of Napalm Death seems to be the only really head-turning one now.
The Anchoress
The Anchoress
Catherine Anne Davies was born in Wales before moving to Australia aged 10 weeks, but despite this early exit has generally worn her Welsh identity on her sleeve in her musical guise, The Anchoress. This has included various with the Manics and a regular place for, most often, Cardiff in her tour schedules, with Newport …
Nubiyan Twist
Nubiyan Twist
Big band – described as a 12-piece in some places, with a mere nine people in the photo I’m currently perusing – from the UK bohemian jazzy dance scene that spans several different genres and is perhaps most at home playing at 4pm at a mid-sized festival with exhorting a slightly baked audience to get …

Eras in calculation: TAYLOR SWIFT’s Cardiff debut to form part of record-breaking 2024 for Principality Stadium

Taylor Swift’s first Welsh stadium show, Williams continues, will form part …
