| Rhonwen STEPHENS | ||
 Born:
Mid-Wales.
Leading folk musician who's first taste of success was as part of art-folk-rock
collective Llefrith. Under her influence they
morphed into Diwylliedig, before Rhonwen
went off to persue a solo career. Style:
art-folk-rock with
progressive overtones; kind of like a modern ISB. Songwriters:
all
Stephens. Trivia: '97s Pomgranad was voted best debut album for
a female solo artist (modern category) in 1998's Celtic-Folk On-Line awards,
while her second album, Mela, received a best album nomination in the Can
Werin Cymru ceremony. Her fourth album, "Gweddillio" won the Celtic-Folk
On-Line modern category prize for the best album by a female solo artist.
