‘Tylluan Cwm Cowlyd (The Owl of Cwm Cowlyd)’ written and performed by Gwilym Bowen Rhys • Gwilym’s heartfelt performance bowled us over in the fifth track of The Folk Effect. His lyrics hunt for answers from the enigmatic figure of Tylluan Cwm Cowlyd (‘The Owl of Cwm Cowlyd’) who is, according to Welsh folklore, the oldest animal in the world. This track is decorated with beautiful descriptions of creatures and landscapes that read like poetry. • We’d happily listen to Gwilym’s latest album ‘Arenig’ on repeat, but this track from his 2018 album is too magical not to share: https://open.spotify.com/track/0YLAPo... • Follow Gwilym on Facebook for the latest updates on live performances: / gwilymbowenrhys • _________ • Six musicians, six days and six brand-new songs: The Folk Effect is a songwriting project like no other. • Featuring exquisite folk musicians from across the UK, including Ríoghnach Connolly, Kate Young, Ellie Gowers, Lisa Knapp, Gwilym Bowen Rhys and Jackie Oates, The Folk Effect celebrates both the history and the future of folk music. • It all begins with a traditional song, passed down through the ages for hundreds of years. Taking this as a starting point, each musician has written a brand-new song in just 24 hours, with each one being inspired by the one before, forming a chain of creativity. Combined with artwork by Jo Elizabeth May, the results are stunning. • Like what you see?
