Hailing from the Welsh town of Carmarthen, Adwaith grew up surrounded by a rich tradition of Welsh-language indie-rock. Drawing inspiration from bold Welsh bands like Datblygu, TraddodiadOfnus, and Fflaps, as well as newer acts on the Welsh music scene, they knew they wanted to make their own uncompromising mark. The dynamic trio—Hollie Singer, Gwenllian Anthony, and Heledd Owen—formed the band in 2015, bringing together their love for experimental and artistically-minded music.
With the release of their highly anticipated third album, Solas, Adwaith takes a huge step forward in their artistic journey.
Recorded across multiple locations, including the Outer Hebrides, Lisbon, and Wales, the 23-track double album is a rich blend of romance and magic. "Solas" reflects their evolution from teenagers to empowered women, exploring self-discovery, escape, and resilience.
Adwaith’s debut album Melyn (2018) won the Welsh Music Prize, and their follow-up, Bato Mato (2022), also earned them a second Welsh Music Prize. The band has earned recognition from BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, KEXP, NPR, and more, as well as played at major festivals like Glastonbury.
Adwaith is now focused on sharing the Welsh language and their unique sound with a global audience.
