Young Welsh folk guitar virtuoso Gwenifer Raymond "tries to invent a new style: Welsh primitive infused with folk horror", Guardian writes about their latest choice for Folk Album of the Month. With a PhD in astrophysics and a day job programming video games on one side, Raymond says her folk music is influenced by the countryside, but had to record her new album 'Strange Lights over Garth Mountain' locked down in her basement during the pandemic.

Just some great guitar playing by Gwenifer Raymond on 'Hell For Certain'; Hey Colossus euphoric new song 'Medal' found a place on their new double album; Whitney K released an interesting Leonard Cohen-meets-Velvet Underground-sounding song 'Maryland'; Told Slant delivered a new take on indie-rock, with added harp, on 'Family Still'.
