Hi, I'm Dafydd and I've been playing and writing music forever. I was in a few bands you've never heard of. Now I'm not and I'm trying to get back to what's important and writing good songs about important subjects.
I've got a few tunes up on my player which are demos for my first E.P. 'Scrumpy Dumpty' that I plan to release by the Spring if I can. When it's all finished you'll be able to download it here for free, along with the artwork I'm currently formulating in my twisted little brain.
All my tracks were recorded, produced and mixed by my old pal Sick Fiction in his bedroom, with a little artistic direction from myself of course. We co-wrote 'Round and Round' and 'Opusone'.
Love is all :)

Influences: Family, friendship, love, fear, frustration, betrayal, music, film, the sea, distant lands, mountains, literature, rivers, trees and anything else I see, hear, feel or do. It would be absurd to list a load of musicians who have shaped my songwriting so I won't - I'll let you guess and make your own assumptions instead.
Sounds Like: A beautifully shambolic folk-punk experience fuelled by too much cider
Type of Label: None
