  • Description

    Tân is the eagerly awaited new album from acclaimed Welsh singer Lleuwen.

    Tân, the Welsh and Breton word for 'fire', is the result of an exciting new musical partnership between Lleuwen and the experimental double bass player, Vincent Guérin. Lleuwen and Vincent co-produced the album and played all the instruments: Lleuwen on guitars, drums and zither, Vincent on bass, more drums and some ukulele. They also played pots and pans and other kitchen implements!
    They believe that they really have found something magical together and think that Tân is just the start of a musical partnership that they hope will grow. They have adopted an open, childlike approach to their music making – anything goes! This enthusiasm and freedom of spirit is imprinted throughout the album, which delights the ear from start to finish.

    Tân follows on from Lleuwen's 2007 release, Penmon, her first album to feature mostly her own songs. Prior to that Lleuwen's 2005 album of Welsh hymns rendered with an innovative and fresh approach, Duw a Wyr/God Only Knows, with Huw Warren and Mark Lockheart featured as one of the Observer Music Monthly's top twenty albums and was awarded 4 stars by London's Time Out magazine. Rave reviews also appeared in Mojo, The Financial Times and The Guardian.
