Last night was a real celebration of Welsh music on Later…With Jools Holland.
We’re over the moon to have had Gwenno & Boy Azooga accompany Heavenly Recordings alumni Manic Street Preachers on a what has become a great slice of Heavenly history.
With a strong Welsh spirit in the air, it was great to see Radio 1 DJ and new music champion Huw Stephens chatting to Jools so passionately about Cardiff’s thriving music scene.
Boy Azooga played their smashing single ‘Loner Boogie’ from their up & coming debut album ‘1, 2 Kung Fu’ due for release on Friday 8th June.
AZOOGA! AZOOGA!

Gwenno performed the magical single ‘Tir Ha Mor’ from her Cornish language record ‘Le Kov’, released earlier this year.
WATCH GWENNO PERFORM ‘TIR HA MOR’:
It’s been a while since a Heavenly band has stepped under the bright lights of the ‘Later…’ studio, so having TWO of our current roster performing on one show was a memorable occasion.
On Sunday their is an extended episode which features Boy Azooga performing ‘Face Behind Her Cigarette’ & Gwenno performing her current single ‘Eus Keus?’
In Sunday’s episode, Jools will also have a chat with Gwenno about her Welsh & Cornish Language songwriting and heritage.
TUNE IN TO BBC 2 AT 10.50PM ON SUNDAY NIGHT
