Taff Rapids
Continuing the celebration of music of Welsh origin at the Fringe this summer; we are delighted to welcome Cardiff bluegrass sensations @taffrapids. This 4 piece band of brothers blends traditional bluegrass classics with captivating originals, incorporating Welsh-language songs for a unique global appeal.
Their lightning-fast riffs and electric energy helped prompt an invite to the World of Bluegrass Showcase in USA in 2023, the first welsh group to receive such an invitation. UK, European, and Canadian tours followed and a ticket to Folk Alliance International 2025 highlights their growing demand and undeniable talent.
With electrifying performances, rich harmonies, and unmatched instrumental prowess, Taff Rapids is set to become a powerhouse in bluegrass and beyond.
Taff Rapids perform on the main The Barn stage on Tuesday 5 August at the Fringe Sessions.
Honeyglaze
Excited to introduce Honeyglaze - a South London based, ‘post punk’ trio comprised of vocalist and guitarist Anouska Sokolow, bassist Tim Curtis, and Yuri Shibuichi on drums.
The band formed post pandemic - their rapid rise and two album releases led to an invitation to perform at the prestigious SXSW Festival in Texas earlier this year.
Great to have them along to play for us on the main Tithe Barn stage this summer.
