After almost two years of presenting the Welsh Connections Playlist Show Craig has made the difficult decision to step down to concentrate on other projects.
So please give a warm welcome to the new Welsh Connections Playlist Show presenter - the wonderful Esme Thomson… as sister companies we're excited to be working closely with Esme and we wish her all the very best!
We’re over the moon to announce that we will, once again, be producing the official FOCUS Wales magazine for 2024 linking up with Spiritualized, The Mysterines, The Royston Club, Aleighcia Scott, Adwaith, Akine, NFNR, and Ratmir Bilodid from Ukraine plus much more! FOCUS Wales is a fantastic showcase for Welsh music that promotes home-grown talent worldwide.
Over at The Second 45, in Llanelli, Mark Watkin-Price played a fantastic intimate set of original music to a very appreciative crowd - coming up the have album launches for The Now and The Stray Pursuit!
