Hergest - Ffrindiau Bore Oes

Review by Juan Vasquez

Hergest's latest album, Ffrindiau Bore Oes, is a beautiful collection of Welsh folk songs that will transport listeners to the rolling hills and green valleys of Wales. The album showcases the band's versatility, with a mix of traditional and contemporary tracks that are sure to please fans of all ages.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "Hiraeth," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's unique blend of traditional Welsh instruments, such as the harp and fiddle, with modern elements like electric guitar and drums, creates a sound that is both timeless and fresh.

Other standout tracks include "Yr Hen Ffordd," a rousing tune that will have listeners tapping their feet, and "Cân y Ffordd," a poignant ballad that showcases the band's vocal harmonies. The album closes with "Ynys Enlli," a hauntingly beautiful instrumental that perfectly captures the rugged beauty of the Welsh coast.
