Mae Cerys Hafana yn gyfansoddwr ac aml-offerynnwr sy’n manglo a thrawsnewid cerddoriaeth draddodiadol. Mae ei cherddoriaeth yn chwarae efo posibiliadau unigryw’r delyn deires, gan gymryd ysbrydoliaeth o ddeunydd archifol a phrosesu electronig.
Rhyddhawyd Edyf, ei hail albwm, yn 2022, a chafodd yr albwm ei ddewis fel un o ddeg albwm traddodiadol gorau’r flwyddyn. Ym mis Ionawr 2023, cafodd Cerys hefyd ei chynnwys ar raglen ‘Uchafbwyntiau 2022’ Cerys Matthews ar BBC 6 Music.

Cerys Hafana is a composer and multi-instrumentalist who mangles, mutates, and transforms traditional music. She explores the creative possibilities and unique qualities of the triple harp, and is also interested in found sounds, archival materials and electronic processing. She comes from Machynlleth, Wales, where rivers and roads meet on the way to the sea.
Edyf is her second album, released in 2022, and was selected as one of The Guardian’s Top Ten folk albums of 2022. In January 2023, Cerys was also featured on Cerys Matthews’ BBC 6Music ‘Highlights of 2022’ New Year show.
“Brilliant triple-harpist Hafana continues to dig deep to explore the possibilities of her instrument, as well as neglected corners of Welsh song that speak to our anxious present (it’s no accident that Edyf is an old Welsh word for “thread”). Celtic summer carols, psalm tunes and hymns shudder gorgeously.” Jude Rogers, The Guardian
