Post-punk band Adwaith will release their third album Solas, a Celtic word meaning enlightenment, in February

The idea of releasing a 23-track double album of pop and rock songs written entirely in Cymraeg – the Welsh language – might daunt some artists. But not Adwaith, a post-punk group from Carmarthenshire in south-west Wales.

“Well, I mean, if Beyoncé and Taylor Swift can do double albums, then why not us?” said Hollie Singer (vocals, guitar). “I think we’ve always had that ambition from the start. This is the pinnacle of that.”

Solas will be out on 7 February via Libertino Records.
