Welsh musician Cerys Hafana returns with her third album, Angel, released on Glitterbeat Records in 2025. A deeply immersive work rooted in minimalism, avant-folk, and traditional music, the album showcases Hafana's mastery of the Welsh triple harp — a uniquely complex instrument featuring three parallel rows of strings in place of the foot pedals found on classical harps. The result is music of rare intimacy, where Hafana's playing and voice intertwine to captivating effect.
Angel weaves together four Welsh-language vocal tracks and five instrumentals, all drifting through the central themes of enchantment, dream states, and lost time. From the opening folk tale of a man transfixed by a bird's otherworldly song to the striking pairing of unaccompanied voice and saxophone on "Carol Mynyddog," the album unfolds like a quietly spellbinding journey. Pressed on eco-friendly bio vinyl in a premium-quality sleeve, this is a beautifully crafted release from one of folk music's most distinctive voices.
