Cornish language from Skwardya in 2008Music in the Cornish language is going to have a good year in 2008. Skwardya, currently Cornwall's only group performing exclusively in the Cornish language are planning to be at festivals through 2008. Matthew, Dave and Simon kick off the year with Goel Genver at Grampound Road Village Hall on Saturday 26th January, followed by the Cornish Language Weekend at Newquay in March. The latest confirmation is for 16th May at the Galleon in Fowey for the Daphne Du Maurier Festival. Skwardya also plan to be at Golowan, Dehwelans and Lowender Peran. The current set includes many Beatles songs in Cornish, plus some songs which have now become standards for the group, including: Athelstan; Bleujennow; and Sav yn-bann. The sound of the group has changed a little since we welcomed Simon Glanville back full-time, taking the lead vocal on many songs, and harmony on others. 2008 is scheduled to see Skwardya's fourth CD being published. www.myspace.com/skwardya www.geocities.com/skwardya www.cornish-language.org/skwardya |
