Tristwch Y Fenywod
Description
Singing black-lit liturgies of bog bodies caked in mud, entranced by nocturnal landscapes flickering in the moon-glow and powered by queer enchantment – the music of Welsh trio Tristwch y Fenywod in their own words. But Gwretsien Ferch Lisbeth, Leila Lygad, and Sidni Sarffwraig also sing about Sapphic love and pagan mysticism, combining leitmotifs from Celtic lore and mythology with insights from xenofeminist science fiction. All of their songs are sung in Welsh. Drawing upon ancient history, they envision a brighter future in which people will have escaped the prisons of identity and binarism.
