Nid yw effeithiolrwydd fy nulliau yn bwysig. Nid yw llwyddiant llwyr yn bwysig. Yr hyn oedd - sydd - yn bwysig yw fy mod i, caethwas yr amgyflchfyd, wedi gwneud ac yn gwneud popeth a ellid ei wneud.

Erthyglau
THE EX-PIPETTE IS LEADING THE WELSH-SPEAKING MUSIC REVIVAL
Following in her activist mum’s footsteps, Gwenno has made a very modern protest album in her native tongue that confronts the decline of minority languages.
GWENNO: Y DYDD OLAF (ALBUM REVIEW)
Gwenno Saunders used to front the girl-group the Pipettes. Y Dydd Olaf, her solo debut, is a record about the importance of preserving cultural identity in order to resist corporate death, and on it she establishes herself as a visionary of synth-pop moods and textures.
POP IN THE DYSTOPIA
Pop music and the avant-garde don't need to be mutually exclusive. Gwenno has boldly delved into both of those disparate extremes in the span of one LP.
GWENNO CHATS TO DIS ABOUT HER FANTASTIC Y DYDD OLAF LP
Gwenno is a seasoned professional in the entertainment industry. She’s had stints in Vegas as a dancer for Michael Flately’s ‘Lord Of The Dance’, been a teen-rebel in a TV series in her native Wales and, most recently, a member of the indie-pop outfit The Pipettes.
SENSE OF EMERGENCY: GWENNO INTERVIEWED
With her new album Y Dydd Olaf out this week, Aug Stone chats to the Welsh avant-pop singer about revolution, culture and "electro-pop feminism".
THIS IS CYMRU CALLING
The Welsh media landscape can be a grey and gloomy place. A place of suffocating blandness. Of sports banter and traffic updates and Jason Mohammads – as far as the eye can see. But up in the sky above, there’s a twinkling light – a beacon of hope that’s emitting strange and enticing sounds.
