Hailing from Church Village in Wales and now based in Cardiff, we’re introducing you to the lush sounds of CVC. The group have just announced that their debut album ‘Get Real’ is set for release on 13th January via Secretly Distribution. There’s a few good bands that have come from Church Village, our good friends Wynt and Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons, to name a few. And the Cardiff scene is bursting at the seams with great bands. A few more good venues in Cardiff and it would have one of the best scenes in the country!
“The album was recorded with love in the living room of a student house in Cardiff around one microphone, as we searched for a new sound,” they note. “We used pots and pans for percussion, Welsh thunder for atmosphere and 40p Ramen Noodle soups for dinner.”
When we initially moved to Cardiff, we were blown away by the music scene there. It was motivating for us to see other bands like Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard and Boy Azooga playing in great venues across the city. This has faded a bit recently, for obvious reasons – so we’re hoping to play our part in doing what ever we can to bring back the good times!
CVC are David Bassey, Francesco Orsi, Elliot Bradfield, Nanial Jones, Tom Fry and Ben Thorne
