What better way to start off this festival? For the past few years these high octane festival favourites from Wales have been fizzing, frothing and fermenting into the intoxicatingly heady brew they are today.
Shades of Shooglenifty and Peatbog Faeries there may be but Mabon’s music is self styled, singular and toe-tappingly good – an insatiable blend of world music, Celtic roots and rabble rousing funk folk. One minute you’ll think you’re in a Breton bistro, next there are echoes of klezmer, and then they perfectly capture what it says on the can for fusion tracks like “A Hungarian in Brittany” and “Gower Flotsam in Bordeaux”!
This six- piece highly talented band are led by accordionist and tunes meister Jamie Smith, and also features young Scottish musician Calum Stewart on wooden flute, Ruth Angell on fiddle, Derek Smith guitars, iolo Whelan drums/percussion and Matt Downer Bass
Freewheeling through a frenzied repertoire of feelgood tunes the band is also capable of slowing the tempo for mellow, numbers. But not for long!
The only problem will be how to stop yourself leaping out of your seat or just when to stop dancing. Prepare to party!
