Returns with new album, single and tour
Cerys makes an eagerly-anticipated return to the fray on August 21st with the Rough Trade release of her second solo album Never Said Goodbye.
Previously vocalist for Catatonia, one of the most successful bands to have ever emerged from Wales, Cerys Matthews now lives in Nashville with her husband and two young children.
Cerys's solo career has gone from strength to strength. The follow-up to her critically acclaimed debut album Cockahoop from 2003 is a pop album that is inventive and melodic and intricate. It is a story about situations and decisions and characters.
"I wanted to make people feel happy... I hope it sounds different and beautiful. Not avant-garde or difficult to digest." Cerys
