This week on the show, we paid tribute to Emyr Willams, the late cofounder of 90s Welsh independent alternative label Ankst Records, who were at the heart of the emerging Welsh-language alt rock scene of the 80s and 90s. We also had one part of my interview with singer of Montreal bands the 222s (Montreal's first punk band), new wave band 39 Steps, and many others, Chris Barry! Many of the Welsh artists on this show aren't on Spotify, so I'll link a playlist and have included some music in the pod. Music this week by:
