Gruff Rhys to perform at National Eisteddfod in Wrexham
The event, organised by Cymdeithas yr Iaith, will take place at Neuadd William Aston on the Wrexham University campus.
This will be the first time Gruff Rhys has played during Eisteddfod week since 2002, and the first time ever with his full band.
Nia Marshall from Cymdeithas said: "We're really excited because this is the first time that Gruff Rhys has played during the Eisteddfod week since 2002, and the first time ever with his full band, and he will be releasing new Welsh-language tunes this summer."
The concert will be part of a series of three evening gigs, including the Red Wall Celebration on the Thursday and the End-of-Week Eisteddfod party on the Saturday.

Tickets for the gig are now on sale on the websites of both Neuadd William Aston and Cymdeithas yr Iaith.
Remaining tickets will also be available at the Cymdeithas unit on the Urdd Eisteddfod field in Margam during Spring Bank Holiday week.
