Allan Yn Y Fan is renowned as one of Wales’ finest concert and twmpath bands. The band has released six acclaimed albums on the Steam Pie label and has been touring internationally since 2002. Allan Yn Y Fan has performed at prestigious festivals such as Celtic Connections, Great British Folk Festival and the Llangollen International Eisteddfod.
When performing for a twmpath dawns (or ceilidh) our experience counts! We have provided this service for weddings, wedding anniversaries and birthday celebrants ranging in age from 21 to 80 and for special events.
Our corporate work has included an Australian financial services company's offshore conference in Cardiff Castle and providing music for delegates to the ESTNET awards event at Wales Millennium Centre.
We’re just as happy playing in village halls and schools as in theatres and festivals, acoustic or with a PA system. We want our performances to be socially inclusive and suitable for all ages, so are more than willing to organise a relaxed performance to suit individual needs.
"An undeniable force in Welsh music, "NEWiD" their compelling calling card and convincing new face...Bright, brave and dazzling stuff." fRoots "All in all, an album of strikingly beautiful music played by accomplished musicians and capable of touching your soul, making you dance with joy ...or both!!"
