The Joy Formidable announce 10th anniversary edition of debut EP with Welsh versions of tracks
The Joy Formidable will release a 10th anniversary edition of their debut EP A Balloon Called Moaning, which arrives with Welsh-speaking versions of their original tracks.
Today the Welsh band have revealed an acoustic version of "Whirring", which lands with the Welsh version "Chwyrlio".
Their forthcoming A Balloon Called Moaning anniversary edition will include their 2009 EP alongside acoustic Welsh versions of their tracks.
Speaking about their 10th anniversary release, vocalist and guitarist Ritzy Bryan says, "We’ve been through such a lot as a band over the years, it’s been a really reflective studio session, returning to the old recordings and transforming them into these beautiful stripped back, intimate versions. It’s exciting hearing them in the Welsh language because now they have new life too and can be a celebration of language as well as memory."
