Bronwen, Home

Born and bred in the Dulais Valley in South Wales, singing and performing has been part of her life for as long as she can remember, taking up the piano at 5 years old and then teaching herself to play the guitar at 13. Her first taste of gigging and performing her own songs came at the age of 15 and she’s been performing regularly ever since.

Following an unforgettable Blind Audition on the BBC series The Voice UK, where she sang her bilingual take on Sting’s ‘Fields of Gold’, Bronwen gained a role in the BAFTA award winning and Golden Globe nominated film Pride, in which she sang the soundtrack theme Bread and Roses. Her self-released EP ‘Pure Heart’ led her to collaborating with world renowned producer, Hugh Padgham (who recorded the original Fields of Gold with Sting) and more recently she collaborated with producer, John Reynolds (Sinead O’Connor, Damien Dempsey, Damien Rice, Dido, Shane MacGowan… ) at his London based studio. This is where the lead single of this album, ‘Wide Eyed Love’ was produced.

‘Home’ includes 14 beautifully crafted and heartfelt songs that combine to make a gorgeously enthralling debut album.

Cantores ifanc o Gwm Dulais yw Bronwen Lewis. Mae’n perfformio ei chaneuon ei hunan ers rhai blynyddoedd ond daeth i’r amlwg ar y gyfres deledu boblogaidd ‘The Voice UK’. Yn dilyn ei hymddangosiad ar y gyfres hon cafodd wahoddiad i ganu’r gân ar gyfer y ffilm ‘Pride’, a enwebwyd ar gyfer gwobrau y Golden Globe ac a enillodd wobr BAFTA. Cyhoeddodd EP, ‘Pure Heart’ mewn cyd-weithrediad â’r cynhyrchydd cydnabyddedig Hugh Padgham, ac yn fwy diweddar mae wedi gweithio gyda John Reynolds ar ddau drac o’i halbym unigol gyntaf, a fydd yn cael ei ryddhau ym mis Tachwedd 2016 ar label Gwymon. Recordiwyd a chynhyrchwyd gweddill ‘Home’ yn Stiwdio Sain yn Llandwrog gan Robin Llwyd.
