A band performing at Crow Fest in Cwmbran have promised to bring the “party” to the crowd at Cwmbran Stadium.
The all-day music festival is on Saturday 19 July 2025.
The Brotherhood are a collection of singers and musicians who have performed at “thousands” of weddings, parties corporate events.
One of their number is Newport’s Jon Lilygreen, who performed Cyprus’ song in front of millions of viewers at the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest.
Matt Savage, from The Brotherhood, said: “We are a party band. Our job is to bring the party to an event. It will be a wide range of genres and styles, ranging from modern stuff to your classics.
“It’ll cover all kinds of styles, there’ll be soul, funk, a bit of rock, a couple of Welsh rockers, Stereophonics probably, that type of thing.
‘Upbeat and lively’
“We’re fun, upbeat and lively, just the sort of thing for a party on a Saturday afternoon in July.”
The south Wales-based band bring a different number of singers and musicians depending on the type of event.
Crow Fest will see a five-piece group on stage at Cwmbran Stadium.
Matt said: “We’re a covers band. Lots of us write original music in other projects, but for this particular band we do that, rather well.
“There will be lots of mash-ups, fun and interesting arrangements that everyone knows and loves. For example, the audience might find themselves thinking, ‘I know this song’, but it’s with a reggae beat.
“This is really popular now, but we’ve been doing it for years. We play interesting versions of songs that people love.”
This interview was carried out thanks to the support of the event’s organisers, Cwmbran Community Council.
