Di-Cysgodion
Cariad Carn Carw
Ian Mann enjoys the new single from Di-Cysgodion, a quartet led by bassist and composer Huw V Williams. Also featuring guitarists Billy Marrows & Mike De Souza, drummer Jay Davis and guest Laura Jurd
A highly impressive debut album from Kilner, who impresses both as an instrumentalist and a composer. I predict that we will be hearing a lot more from this hugely talented young musician.
A very worthy addition to an already impressive back catalogue
An avant garde jazz record that is actually highly accessible. The playing is steely eyed & dynamic but the band members also sound as if they’re having terrific fun. The Exu are a breath of fresh air
A composer of considerable intelligence who deploys his wide range of influences subtly and skilfully. The standard of playing from an all star band is exceptional throughout.
