Starting in 2020, the band have released a string of singles which have received excellent reviews and single-of-the-week awards on music blogs and websites.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDebut album \u003ci\u003eTeigr\u003c\/i\u003e has been several years in the making, and is partly inspired by Griffiths’s love of 70s Welsh-language pop he remembers from school discos and his parents’ record collection. He also cites Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci, Joe Meek, Television and early Prefab Sprout as influences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the album’s completion and release delayed by the inevitable pandemic story, 2021 saw the deceptively young Griffiths juggling finalising the record with studying for his A Levels, eventually putting the finishing touches to the record with producer Kris Jenkins (ex Super Furry Animals) at Grangetown Studios, Cardiff in the lull following.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Community Work","offers":[{"title":"CD.","offer_id":50402488123723,"sku":"2177698","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/unnamed_5ca0023b_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726546999","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/teigr","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
