Fred Perry heads to the Welsh capital for a weekend of live music

A multi-venue festival, Cardiff’s Sŵn Festival takes place across the city’s more intimate live music venues. A celebration of home-grown talent, the weekend is jam-packed with the best up-and-coming musicians the UK has to offer.



Fred Perry favourites Black Country New Road and Squid played alongside newcomers Nilüfer Yanya and The Murder Capital, who have gained serious recognition since doing this year’s UK festival circuit.



After their storming live performance underneath Jacob’s Antiques Market, Hotel Lux strolled over to Fred Perry Cardiff for an exclusive unplugged gig. The perfect end to this year’s UK festival season.
