About Gwenno

Gwenno is a boundary-pushing artist from Cardiff whose music blends psych-pop, electronic textures and rich cultural heritage. A former member of The Pipettes, Gwenno stepped into solo territory with Y Dydd Olaf (2015), sung almost entirely in Welsh and inspired by a dystopian sci-fi novel. Her 2018 follow-up Le Kov deepened this exploration, drawing on her Cornish roots with an album sung entirely in Cornish — a bold, passionate statement that brought minority languages into the alt-pop spotlight. Both records received critical acclaim, with Le Kov earning a spot on the Mercury Prize shortlist.

Gwenno’s live performances are immersive and thought-provoking, featuring appearances at Green Man, End of the Road and Glastonbury. Her most recent album, Tresor (2022), continues to fuse political commentary with dreamlike sonics, and was again shortlisted for the Mercury Prize. With a fiercely independent spirit and a dedication to celebrating linguistic and cultural diversity, Gwenno remains one of the UK’s most innovative and down-to-earth voices in contemporary music.
