ADWAITH GIG ON SAT 30TH OCT
Scared To Dance presents Adwaith on Saturday 30th October at The Lexington.
Support comes from lilo and tickets are on sale at DICE.
One of our favourite new bands of recent years, we clearly aren’t the only ones who’ve noticed the brilliance of South Wales-trio Adwaith. Their acclaimed debut album, Melyn, drew near universal critical acclaim, culminating in the band winning 2019’s Welsh Music Prize. The band have wasted no time in following up on Melyn’s success, releasing a series of new tracks that hint at where their fascinating music is headed next.
Describing Adwaith’s sound is a difficult task, each track is equally likely to be a slice of perfect post-punk, an ethereal soundscape or a swampy blast of ravey psychedelica. With an eclectic, magpie-like approach to songwriting, Adwaith manage to create a sound entirely their own, and one that looks set to propel them as far as their ambition and imagination can take them. More than just the future of Welsh-music, Adwaith might just be the future of music as we know it.
lilo are a duo from London. They released their debut Tinted Windows/Tough Love EP in 2017 and since living in different countries for a while are back playing and recording again with recent singles “Change” and “Scarecrow”. Taking influence from the likes of Kings of Convenience and Adrianne Lenker, their harmonies and acoustic guitar come together to create a uniquely delicate, indie folk sound.
