Theatr Clwyd to welcome impressive musical shows this autumn

Acoustic Tones (September 4)

Acoustic Tones will showcase some of the best emerging singers and songwriters performing mellow tones and acoustic vibes - all powered by bikes.

The event will be harnessing the kinetic energy of the audience with pedal-powered lighting to ensure the event is zero-carbon, atmospheric and fun. Come on a journey to shape the future, be enlightened by acoustic performances and illuminated (literally) by riding one of the electricity-generating bikes.

There will be three acts performing at this event. Thom Morecroft has been described by founding editor of Mojo & Word Paul Du Noyer as "charming and addictive" and BBC Introducing's Tom Robinson as "leaving you reaching for the replay button".

ME and Deboe are Mercy Elise and Sarah Deboe. They are a critically acclaimed duo known for their electrifying live performances and intricate harmonies. Golden Fable are Rebecca and Tim Joy. Rebecca’s beautiful, haunting vocal takes the centre stage, whilst multi-instrumentalist Tim creates the layered musical textures beneath.

When asked to describe her music, Meinir says ‘I’m a singer-songwriter; I just use the inspiration given to me to create. I’m not really a ‘genre’ kind of artist.’ Her latest release, Caneuon Tyn yr Hendy (2023) was met with much critical acclaim and seems to have developed a somewhat cult-like following, amongst young and old alike.
