About Us

Gathered In Song put on gigs in South Wales. Who or exactly what we are isn’t particularly important, but learn to trust us, as you won’t regret it. As the Joy Collective recently exclaimed “if you don’t recognise anyone on the bill, don’t worry about it, it’ll be ace, go along anyway”. That’s the kind of behaviour we positively encourage.

We deal primarily with touring bands from across the americana/nu-folk/lo-fi/indie-pop spectrum but also enjoy a bit of noisy stuff. We have put on shows for bands on Sub Pop, Saddle Creek, Rough Trade, Secretly Canadian, Jagjaguwar, Dead Oceans, Domino, Bella Union, Polyvinyl, Loose, Broken Horse and other great labels.

We have no ties to any venues, specific nights or any other limitations, which essentially means we just put on bands we like; every act is a personal recommendation. A list of bands who have played Gathered In Song shows can be found on the events page.

We also occasionally programme events for local Councils and other organisations when they want something particularly magical to happen. Check out the Across The Borders page for a recent example.

Hope to see you soon at a show!
