9Bach live in London & on Radio 3
As we get close to the end of the year there's still a couple of chances to experience the wonderful 9Bach live.
On Friday 8 December they play at London’s Cadogan Hall alongside Moulettes. It should prove to be a special night for those close to the capital so please do try and join us if you can.
The following night, 9 December, the band will also play an end-of-year homecoming set at Neuadd Ogwen in Bethesda. Perfect!
If you can’t make either of those live shows, then you can still listen out for BBC Radio 3’s World on 3 this Friday night (1 Dec) at 11pm where 9Bach will be playing four songs live in session.

Released 28 April 2016
‘Anian’ is 9Bach's third album. Like 2014's ‘Tincian’ it begins in North Wales, but broadens out through Greek and Near Eastern influences into an emotional tour de force. Angry, sad, but most of all passionate at the state of the world, the album taps into a truly universal language.
