AMY WADGE 17th Sep 2009 - 19:30 (Free) / £6.00 / £8.00 / £10.00
Amy Wadge

Here's the chance to spend a blissful evening with one of Wales' most respected and charismatic singer-songwriters. Amy Wadge is blessed by a distinctive, passionate voice, described as a ray of light one moment, shot through with sorrow the next. At Radio 2 Music Live 2001 week in Cardiff, she got a slot on the Janice Long Late Night Session and was heralded as one of the week's highlights. She then went on to play at the launch of BBC 6 Music alongside The Stereophonics and Lenny Kravitz. Since beating Charlotte Church and Cerys Matthews to Best Female Solo Artist at the Welsh Music Awards two years running, she has supported the likes of Van Morrison, Damien Rice, Eric Bibb and Jeff Beck, and played The Royal Albert Hall - twice!

OYSTERBAND 7th Oct 2009 - 19:30 £14.00 / £15.00
Oyster Band

Once the bad boys of folk and rock, Oysterband have grown over the past five years into the role of godfathers of folk roots. Influenced by all manner of music, culture and style, the heartbeat of the band is a deep-rooted love of the traditional music of Britain, a tradition that deals in integrity, passion, human experience and human emotion - songs that made you want to dance, laugh, cry, jump for joy - even start a fight! Oyster trademarks - a folk ear for a great vocal tune, strong lyrics, wry politics, big dynamics, a sense of musical theatre and a deep-down musicality that can afford to take itself fairly lightly - have helped them to become one of the most irresistible bands of the last decade. Their ever evolving, fresh perspective on folk continues, and the most exciting time in Oysterband's considerable history could be right now.
