UTICA
THE THIRD ALBUM BY HUW M
Utica is Huw M’s third album – his first on the wonderful I Ka Ching label, recently chosen as NME’s label of the week. For this release, Huw has been working with various musicians to blend early gospel with Welsh folk, and a good dollop of poignancy, melancholy and heartbreak. Very jolly stuff.
Huw M
Huw M is Welsh composer and performer Huw Meredydd Roberts who plays a mix of original melodies and borrowed folk songs, mangled together with influences from across the globe, to create haunting, intelligent music.
Stuart Maconie on BBC 6 Music referred to Huw M’s first single as a “Stunningly beautiful piece of music”. His first two albums received glowing reviews and widespread support by the likes of Marc Riley, Huw Stephens and Gideon Coe; his second album, Gathering Dusk, was also short-listed for the Welsh Music Prize.
