Performer Name: Hen Fegin
Hen Fegin was formed in 2015, and the members have been entertaining audiences across Wales and beyond with their unique folk sound from Maldwyn ever since. The band's homely music is a combination of the old and the new, weaving together the traditional and the contemporary. Although the band was originally a quartet of Maldwyn lads, the group has now expanded to six members. The current members are Roy Griffiths (vocals, guitar and banjo) and Jac Gittins (vocals, mandolin, whistle and bodhran) - former members of the folk trio Plethyn, Idris Morris Jones (vocals and fiddle) - former member of Pigyn Clust and Gwerinos, Bryn Davies (vocals and accordion) - former member of Ci Du and Pen Tennyn, Alun Hart (double bass) - experienced musician and former member of several bands and Cadi Glwys Davies (triple harp) - national winner on the triple harp and clog dancing. Their first album 'Hwyl i Ti Ngwas' was released in 2019 and their single 'Fflam y Llan' in 2023 on the Recordiau Maldwyn label. They are currently working on their second album and recording at Stiwdio Sain, hoping to release it this year.
