Tristwch Y Fenywod

“Together the trio conjure a witchy vision of gothic avant-pop sung entirely in Welsh, the type of music for which the word “eldritch” was created: coolly eccentric but also just cool and honestly quite groovy in parts—avant and pop, after all.”
Mariana Timony, Bandcamp Daily, 2024

Tristwch Y Fenywod is a Leeds-based band of three queer women who play avant garde Gothic rock using folk, rock, and digital instruments, with lyrics sung entirely in the Welsh language (Cymraeg). Sapphic love and desire, existential darkness, political and environmental anguish, psychogeographic romance, pagan mysticism, imaginal explorations of Celtic history and myth, psychedelia, and myriad other variations of reverie are conjured through the music of Tristwch Y Fenywod.
