Christmas is on it’s way and we’re super excited to bring you some of the most exciting acoustic based acts coming out of Rhondda Cynon Taff right now.

Laura Power brings her unique brand of soulful folk – off the back of releasing her new single ‘Broken’. Already receiving critical acclaim from those at BBC Radio Wales, Laura is set to impress with her powerful vocals and touching lyrics.
Foxxglove completes the bill with a new take on pop. Fusing elements of folk, acoustic and electric pop – expect exciting things from the 2019 Forté Project // Prosiect Forté.
