Thanks to "4th Street Traffic" for playing at the "Moonfest party" in Wiltshire. 2+ hours is not enough of this fantastic Welsh band.

Maybe she`s not the most popular here. But I really love the sound of Loreena McKennitt, a really wonderful artist of Celtic music.

Super. Furry. Animals. They are undoubtedly the best band on the planet. I can't believe so few of you Welsh folk rate them highly. Forgive my hyperbole earlier in this paragraph but in all seriousness there is no other British band who can touch them.

4th street traffic are the best unsigned band in s.Wales and the UK. They are absolutely awesome. Very very professional and inspirational, with strong lyrics, powerful vocals and mind blowing guitar work and drums. These boys are as good as anything in the music business today. Go for it lads...

Three of the best bands in wales at the mo' for me are, 4th Street Traffic. Conerstone.& Back Alley Sally.If i had to pick just one, for me it would have to be 4th Street Traffic but all 3 are super bands and worth a look if you get the chance. Why is it so hard for great bands like this to get signed - as much as I love Wales for anyone trying to get on in the music world here it can be the real pits!

Mike from Haverfordwest
Go see Dirty Dog from Haverfordwest!! The funkiest band in Pembrokeshire and beyond. Their new album 'Too Drunk To Funk' is absolutely awesome and what a live show!! Big things on the horizon. Also check out 'My dad's on fire' and 'Persona B' there's a few more a can't think of for now. The Pembs music scene is really tasty at the moment...

Thirsty Work from Pembroke Dock rule!!!!! There are only three of them but they play classic stuff that no one else can even attempt to do - like Bohemian Rhapsody!!!!

Sherida Tyler
You must hear the young harpist, Angharad Evans...try and catch her live. She manages to be informative yet informal and has a good rapport with the audience. The music is traditional Welsh music played on the ancient instrument with nearly 100 strings. Magical.

Saw the Insiders at Wind street's Adelphi on Sunday. Absolutely fantastic. They played for about 2 and half hours solid. The place was packed out and it was the best gig I've been to for ages.

Seen 4th street traffic a few times, their a very good band it's easy to see why they are liked by so many theres something special about this band that stands out.

Robbie. Bargoed
Just like to say yes it's true, 4th Street Traffic have been signed to a small record label and their first single will be relased into the download chart on april 24th. 4th Street Traffic is one of the best bands in wales today and as a fan i would like to wish them the very best!
And good luck to all the other unsigned bands out there you keep us rocking!

Mike James Port Talbot
Saw a great Duo on two occasions at the 4 winds Porttalbot,must say a great venue but what two great lads were on stage called "CALYPSO" played a great variety of rock material and played it well.I've been told their from swansea so lads if ur reading this get your gigs in the gig guide please.. Mike

Looks like 4th Street Traffic as been signed i hope its a good label in the right hands this band could be huge.
Can't understand why the pop factory didn't snap this band up after they won their rock idol compo'then again it's their loss.

Andy Blackwood
Went to see 4th street traffic last night at the Angel inn to see what all the fuss was about i give them 10/10 really good band. But thethe icing on the cake for me was the lead guitarist off stage this boy is nothing special and seems very shy, but put a guitar in is hands and boy is he something one of the best guitarists i have ever seen and i have seen a few.
Sat Mar 4 09:31:27 2006
Claud Cleric - Finsbury Park
By hook and by crook, have you heard the Insiders?? Swansea's best band by far. Real power stuff from boys who have been there and done it already.

4th Street Traffic are the best unsigned band in wales bar none great music awsome live - alround real tight band that can't be beat. There are a lot of really good bands out there but 4th Street Traffic stands at the very TOP!

For those of you who enjoy live music that you want to get up and dance to, try a new venue in town. Every Sunday night the Bay View in Oystermouth Road are putting on live bands... Well worth a visit on any night but Sundays are for rockin your socks off!!

Cadman in Bristol
For hip hop, no-one is doing it like QRED.
This guy is coming with that dark flavor, no bull... Anyone who claims to be into real hip hop should seek out any of his releases. And he's from the sticks in Pembrokeshire??!! Must be something in the water down there...

Up and coming Swansea band Opaque Reality have had some good reviews, playing a mixture of there own material,and covers,such as Ramones, Chilli Peppers and Velvt Revolver to name but a few, their musical maturity belies the fact that they are all just 14,they cut a demo disc back in october,and have been support to Lynchpin on the gig at Teenspirit in December,they can be seen at Inferno in the Uplands,and at Teenspirit, Northampton lane.
Tue Jan 17 12:40:07 2006
Anne T. Social - Swansea Sandfields
I can only agree with your last comment. The "INSIDERS" are a brilliant band. They really rock and I love them all.They are always playing in and around Swansea and Neath. Must be the area's hardest worked group. Well worth while going for a listen and a bop. Score out of ten.....eleven easily.

Heywood U. Cuddleme, swansea
the insiders are a truly fantastic local band, very close knit, looks like a grandfather, son and grandson line up.
dont miss any chance u get to see them around swansea - you wont regret it!

Suzanne of Pembrokeshire
The Rainkings have got to be my favourite Pembs band of the last few years - great songs and great live! They don't do many gigs these days but if you get a chance to see them you won't be disappointed. The best place to see them would be at a summer festival or The Station Inn, Pembroke Dock which is my fav live venue.

The Blackbirds are a pretty good band, as are Twisted Faith and Intensive Square - I saw them at Yogfest the other day, pity about Love Rocket though..

I feel the Welsh rap scene has come alive since the establishment of Goldie Lookin Chain. Many up and coming rappers have performed at the Artramont Arms in Croes-goch which is a hotbed of rap in West Wales including MC Westside Ddraig and Dangerous Dafydd.
Sun Nov 27 20:29:59 2005
JessiKa from Pembs!
Dirty Dog are absolutely brilliant, but then again, I could be biased as my brother is in thr band. Still.. They are brilliant and have improved tremendously in the past few months. The Trials are also pretty damn good. My Dads On Fire, Brother Vegetable, The Blackbirds are also all brilliant. There are others too but they've escaped my mind. Infact, the Pembrokeshire music scene is thriving at the moment with talented, enthusiastic, young musicians!

Music Appreciation Society of Swansea
If you haven't seen Swansea's Rockers "The Insiders" then you sure have got something to look forwards to. They are by far the best band in South Wales. Their music is so vibrant it blows you away. They mostly play the smaller venues (they are a trio) and are in and around Swansea every weekend. They headlined the last two Gower Guitar Festivals and are booked to perform for the "Bikers Rally" at Margam Park in 2006.

A great vocal duet that I can recommend are Charlés and Gilles. They are a tribute act to the 80's duo ' Chas 'n Dave. From Port Talbot but perform all across South Wales. Go and see them and have a great time!

I must recommend my band. We are called the Sharpshooters, and if you're ever in Port Talbot, you're bound to have seen us busking on Station Road. We haven't made it big yet, but here's hoping!!!

Check out Se' Fire, I saw them at the Queens Hall ages ago, really want to see them again, it was an amazing, some real quality hip-hop, it's just a shame there's not alot of other acts doing hip-hop and D&B.

I'm not 100% sure if they're from Wales... but I caught Dogzuki's gig in Kingston the other day... blew me away, when will they get the recognition they deserve?

Waunite from The Waun
With their album 'Dore', Bob Delyn a'r Ebillion proved they are still one of the most talented and innovative bands on the Welsh scene. Working with producer Gorwel Owen, (SFA, Gorkys) their experimental approach to the folk tradition and Twm Morys' bardic mastery of the Welsh language (translations supplied) combine to make some truly beautiful songs like 'Pethau Bychan Dewi Sant' and 'Yr Afon'. Hair-raising stuff!

Ond from Carmarthen
Hey everyone.
This is for anyone who would like to further promote their bands in Carmarthenshire. The Supernauts website has its own forum dedicated to creating a Carmarthen music scene. Now this doesn't mean you have to be from Carmarthen to be a part of it, we already 9 bands from around Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion areas all being part of it as well as over 80 members which is not bad considering it only started this year.
The bands have all stated that joining the Carmarthen Music Movement forum has helped bands arrange and participate in gigs around the Carmarthen area that would have not happened without it's help, so if you want to play in & around Carmarthen with bands like Supernauts, Nikolai, The States, The Big Apple Credits and loads more then join the forum. Go to www.supernauts.co.uk and then click on the "Go to the forum" picture.
Thanks

I am wondering why a local Swansea music artist is probably unknown in Wales? Her name is Helen Zachariah and she is from Swansea. I have just heard her CD's and think they are excellent. She records on NDN Records from Texas... The website for NDN is www.ndnrecords.com ...

I love Bonnie Tyler her voice is really great. When I put her CDS on it's like she is singing directly to me. All the Best is a great CD has all good songs that she did in the early 90s and a few from 70s. Plus I like Heartstrings and others. Keep on rockin' u go girl, just remember the fans in the US still remember and love you.

I have to say for listening to music in general head to The Office in Swansea. Not only do they have a vast array of music bands (Blues to Jazz, Rock to Punk) but they have the most interesting clientel to engage in topical discussions with. LETS ROCK!

I adore Bonnie she is the best. In my opinion she belongs in the rock n roll, when I'm down I put her on she lifts my spirits up. Being famous hasn't gone to her head. Wales is lucky to have a great superstar I love ya . Bonnie Tyler has a special place in my heart - no other singer has. Keep up the good work keep us smiling.

Bonnie Tyler of course! She is the best singer all over the world and a Swansea girl at heart! Germany loves her very much! Wales can be very proud :-)

I love Bonnie Tyler - I adore her new CD Heartstrings I listen to it all the time. It's great, it's Bonnie at her best her voice sounds better then ever, more huskier then it did before.

Boys From The Hill. What a cracking live band and a really nice bunch of lads too.If you ever get a chance to see them, you must.I have seen them play at huge music festivals in North Wales and tiny pubs in South Wales.They give 100% everytime.

There are quite a few good bands atm, but the top of my list are Asylum and Clarity. Very cool, looking forward to their next gigs. Asylum demo coming soon!

Boys From The Hill, from Swansea. I seen the boys support The Men They Couldn't Hang in Blackwood. They were superb, carry on boys!

Paul says:
"The Buzzards, The Buzzards, The Buzzards! Just been to their CD lauch gig - where they played the songs off Skullshurbbery. They were brilliant! What a band! They deserve great success!

Ceri nominates two bands:
"Asylum (from Tenby and the surrounding areas) are amazing! It's great to hear such a heavy band play. They're truly incredible. And they've only been a band for a few weeks. Also Clarity - they're also mind blowing. Both bands have a lot of potential!"
Wed Jan 28 17:37:17 2004
Iwan nominates:
"Super Furry Animals! Best band from Wales, wholly original and refreshing."
Wed Jan 28 17:36:55 2004
Phil nominates:
"The Buzzards from Pembrokeshire. Just got their new CD Skullshrubbery and it's fantastic!"
Wed Jan 28 17:36:31 2004
Smithers, Kelly and Jason
"My fave band at the moment is Clarity from Milford Haven. It's good to see a female fronted band on the music scene."
Wed Jan 28 17:36:07 2004
Elz loves Fenks:
"Oh I'd definately say Fenks from Aberystwyth. They're brilliant live and they really love the music they make, and you can see that by the way they perform. I definately think they'll do well."
Wed Jan 28 17:35:40 2004
Pauline nominates:
"Roots and Galoots play the most brilliant music I've heard in years. Bluegrass instrumentals with fiddle, mandolin, banjo, guitar and upright bass. And they all do fantastic vocals. Really worth a listen!"

Rob disagrees with Sarah:
"... I think Bonnie Tyler is not attracting the younger people in Wales. People like Cerys Matthews, now she is one great singer. She actually sings with a Welsh accent and that's what the many people of Wales want to hear. She really makes Wales proud. Well done."
Wed Jan 28 17:34:59 2004
Sarah says:
"Bonnie Tyler because she has a great voice and her songs are good."
Wed Jan 28 17:34:36 2004
Charlie is a fan of the following:
Feeder, Cerys Matthews, Rag Foundation and The Caves, but not necessarily in that order! Loads of talent in Wales, whether you go to the CIA or The Chattery in Swansea."
Wed Jan 28 17:34:09 2004
Manny votes for Boys From The Hill:
"I have seen hundreds of bands in Wales and the surrounding areas over the past twenty years or so but only one band in particular has ever had any impact on me (and I mean impact!) and that is Swansea's 'Boys From The Hill'."
Wed Jan 28 17:32:34 2004
Gill from Pembrokeshire:
"I have to nominate my school orchestra - Greenhill School, Tenby. We have on of the best music departments in Wales. We have gone through to the last stage of the National Music for Youths in London lots of times, frequently picking up the Highly Commended. Last year we went to London and the Urdd and won! We hope to do the same this year, as well as tour Prague."
Wed Jan 28 17:32:13 2004
Mary-Beth from Ipswich
"So much great music to chose from in Pembrokeshire! Great nights had listening to local bands: The Buzzards (my fav.), The Idle Rogues and The Rainkings ... listening to their music on CD got me through my recent studies with my sanity and always put me in party mode! Tim Williams (Buzzards) voice and original songs send shivers down my spine. PS. got to give The Vagrant Crew a big A+ for sheer enthusiasm!"
Wed Jan 28 17:31:46 2004
Steve has nominated two Swansea bands:
"Rag Foundation and Bigelow - both Swansea bands blow me away when I see them live. Fantastic."
Wed Jan 28 17:31:21 2004
Custard Nick is a fan of Rag Foundation:
"Whether live or on disc Rag Foundation never fail to pull out a banging tune."
Wed Jan 28 17:31:05 2004
Brian is a fan of Morriston Orpheus Choir:
"The noise, bustle and chaos of Bangkok is forgotten when I listen to the Morriston Orpheus Choir sing Myfanwy, Sospan Fach and Bread of Heaven."
Wed Jan 28 17:30:47 2004
Carolyn agrees with what Glen says:
"Gorky's obviously but also Elephant Gerald from Tenby and Boys From The Hill from Swansea"
Wed Jan 28 17:29:55 2004

"Gorkys Zygotic Mynic - the most innovative band in the whole of Wales; tremendous live too."
Wed Jan 28 17:29:36 2004

"The Buzzards. They're not wrong!"
