Cyn Cwsg make songs that bite straight to the bone. Their debut EP Pydru yn yr Haul, produced by Tom Rees (Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard), trades dreaminess for something raw and unguarded. Blending harmony-soaked rock, oddball country, and hallucinatory pop, the North Wales quartet write with humour, heartbreak, and quiet defiance — in both Welsh and English.
Clash called the record “a confident, endearing and very Welsh EP,” praising its “huge guitars” and “Beach Boys-esque harmonies.”
With Pydru yn yr Haul championed by BBC 6 Music’s Emily Pilbeam and recent sessions for Marc Riley and BBC Introducing at Maida Vale, Cyn Cwsg are fast emerging as one of the most distinctive new voices in Welsh alternative music.
