MR HUW - GOGLEDDWYR BUDUR



“Cerddor sy’n mynd yn erbyn y llif gyda syniadau, egni a melodïau di-ri,

mae Mr Huw yn un o wir gymeriadau’r sin danddaearol”

Huw Stephens

Yn recordio o’i ogof yng ngogledd Cymru ers 2007, mae’r anghydffurfiwr mr huw (Huw Owen)

yn plymio i ddyfnderoedd na fyddai’r dychymyg tywyllaf yn meiddio mynd yn agos iddynt.

Yn recordio popeth ei hun ar 8 trac ymhlith peiriannau hynafol eraill, mae’n cyfuno

curiadau electroneg gyda synau amrwd a melodïau pop cofiadwy.
