Hi friends, I'm an independent songwriter and singer. Hailing from a small town in southern Germany, I have lived in the US and UK, and am currently based in Sweden. I like writing stories about love, friendship, life, and (a lot of) heartbreak. 
In the year 2021, I took up a song-a-week challenge, in which I recorded and released one song every week for the entire year of 2021. Then I took a step back to learn, work with other musicians, and record more music. Now in 2023 I am back with new music and can't wait for you all to hear it! Thanks for stopping by :)

Welsh Awen Rock band from Anglesey, North Wales led by singer songwriter Scott Marsden. Fresh from packed out festival slots at the likes of Focus Wales, Isle Of Wight Festival and sold out tour dates all across the UK.

Since the release of their critically acclaimed award winning album, 'Druids and Bards' released on Welsh independent record label Snowdonia Records, the record has been championed by John Kennedy on Radio X, Gary Crowley on BBC Radio London and playlisted on Amazing Radio's A List, Steve Lamacq on BBC 6 Music and with BBC Radio Wales support from Huw Stephens and Adam Walton, and huge Louder Than War Radio support from Iain Key & Neil Crud.

It's fair to say that the North Wales band have had quite the year! The bands third album 'Druids and Bards' received numerous album of the year nominations including Louder Than War's top 100 albums of the year. It also made the long list of nominees for the Welsh Music Prize and was winner of Tiwn Media Album of the Year 2023.

Rhys Byrne hails from the Wild West of contemporary music, North Wales. Taking influence from the likes of Mac Demarco, The Smiths and Roxy Music. 

Through the use of dreamy guitar, crooning melodies and emotive lyrics, Rhys has carved a unique space in the local scene. 

Recording and producing by himself, on 8 track tape and other classic methods.

Writing sloppy tunes about love, post-breakup emotion and life. Rhys' recordings really are solo efforts, even down to the hand-crafted cover artwork.
