Traditional Music from the North Atlantic Fringe

    About Us

     Based in Bathurst and the Blue Mountains, Cymbrogi is a  musical  collaboration between five of the most accomplished and respected  traditional musicians the region has to offer, Roger Hargraves (Fiddle),  Jane Anderson (Guitar and Vocals), Glenda Kelly (Fiddle), Libby Bell  (Accordion and Vocals), Nick Rigby (Bouzouki). The band takes it's name  from the old Cymraeg (Welsh) word meaning "companions of the heart",  truly capturing the spirit of the their musical project. Describing  their music as "North Atlantic Fringe trad", their unique and creative  reinterpreting of the connected musical traditions of the wild edge of  Europe and beyond, takes you on an exciting journey through the ancient  trade routes, sea lanes and drove roads of the Atlantic cultures. From  Cumbria to Clare, Nova Scotia to Shetland, and Asturias to Cornwall,  step aboard and travel with Cymbrogi as a companion of the heart
