It’s not often that anyone can say they’re directly responsible for the resurgence of an endangered language but Cardiff-born, multi-lingual sound artist Gwenno certainly can! Raised by a Cornish poet father and a Welsh activist mother, Gwenno’s all-Cornish 2018 record ‘Le Kov’ caused a 15% increase in people learning the language. How cool is that?!

Keeping it Cornish, Gwenno’s Mercury nominated, folk-pop album ‘Tresor’ completely blew us away last year. Inspired by powerful international women, the artist layers sounds found around the world to decouple language from place and create new, imaginative spaces for her audience to explore.
