Giant Manx Contingent invades Wales

06 Apr 2020


Nearly 70 members from Manx dance groups Skeddan Jiarg and Perree Bane went to the Cwlwm
Celtaidd Interceltic Festival in Wales last month, and wowed audiences with stunning concert
performances at the Hi-Tide festival venue, local school visits, workshops and outdoor displays in
the local town of Porthcawl.
The festival also featured a headline concert from Jamie Smith’s Mabon (led by Peel residents Jamie
Smith and Paul Rogers), along with a short performance from young all-girl singing group, ’Little
Manx’, who sang a range of groovy songs in Manx Gaelic, and a Manx super-group made up of
Beccy Hurst, David Kilgallon, Frank Joughin and Jamie Smith.
