welsh connections

Presented by Mike Kennedy and Esme Thomson. Mike is one of the original three that started Welsh Connections - which is a platform for established and rising Welsh musicians across all genres. He now hosts the Welsh Connections Interview Show while TIWN Media's Esme hosts the Welsh Connections Playlist - taking over from Craig Mapstone, which is broadcast on stations worldwide. In 2020 Mike with ex-Barracuda frontman turned fine-artist, Jeremy Gluck, launched the SWND magazine and record label. Mike is also a member of the Welsh Music Prize jury since 2021 and works with many other worldwide music organisations to promote indie artists to a wider audience.
