Welsh guitarist Gwenifer Raymond announced herself as a remarkable new voice in folk music with her debut full-length, You Were Never Much of a Dancer, released in 2018. Drawing on the American Primitive guitar tradition pioneered by John Fahey, Raymond brings the style roaring back to life with a fresh and deeply personal perspective, earning widespread critical acclaim from outlets including The Guardian, The Observer, Uncut, and Mojo.
What sets Raymond apart is her rare combination of technical virtuosity and raw emotional depth, equally at home on acoustic guitar and banjo. Described as "stunningly confident" and "in full possession of its art," this debut showcases an artist who doesn't just revive a tradition — she inhabits it completely, making it entirely her own.
