GWEN is the solo project of Welsh artist, songwriter and producer Gwenllian Anthony. As co-founder and creative force behind the acclaimed band Adwaith, she helped bring music sung in Cymraeg to international audiences. As GWEN, she creates music that blends industrial textures, minimalist electronics and hypnotic rhythms with emotionally direct songwriting. As she prepares for her debut solo performance at this year’s Green Man, Gwen chats to Pictish Trail - aka festival stalwart Johnny Lynch. 

Pictish Trail released his sixth album Life Slime last spring, “about how slimy life can get”. Written at his home on the Isle of Eigg and recorded in Margate, the new songs are sure to feel at home in the Welsh mountains too. Brace yourself for guilt, surrender, hope, transformation, renewal, fracture, and release, via warped and tender psychedelic electropop tunes. 

Pictish Trail will play Far Out at 1.30pm on Friday; see GWEN in the Walled Garden at 12pm on Sunday.
