Stumbles Through Mumbles ! With over two thousand years of history, there is much more to Mumbles than Joe’s Ice Cream and the Lighthouse (though they are pretty cool too!). Let me show you some of the nooks and crannies and tell you some of the ghastly (and ghostly!) stories that make up this lovely little village of ours. From the stained glass of All Saint’s Church to the ‘little’ castle of William of London, from the composer Morfydd Owen to the man who re-wrote Shakespeare, Mumbles has plenty to offer and is a tiny jewel in the coastline of Swansea Bay. I will help you discover it. Starting at the top of Castle Avenue, it involves a leisurely stroll along the front and through the back roads finishing at the slipway. It takes between ninety minutes and two hours and numbers are strictly limited. Moderate mobility is required for these walks. “Fantastic. What a wonderful walk and what lovely weather Mumbles has!” — Jeanine Beck, Divonne-les-Bains, France “I live in Swansea and I learnt a lot.” — Peg the Princess, Swansea, Wales Information Source: Lighthouse Theatre | eventbrite

Broken Fires (stage @ 930pm) Broken Fires are a Welsh collective writing massive alternative rock songs about love, life and death. They aim to combine the big rock energy of Manchester Orchestra, emotional honesty of Frightened Rabbit and the ambitious, progressive playfulness of Divorce. First album “Silhouettes” (2015) picked up BBC Radio 1 airplay, extensive play on BBC Radio Wales and syncs on MTV and BBC television. After pursuing side projects, the band returned in 2022 with a second LP “Hymns”. Produced by Matt Lederman, the man behind the desk for Rural Alberta Advantage’s critically acclaimed Mended with Gold, singles “Dreamer” and “New Friends” picked up national radio play from Steve Lamacq and Huw Stephens. The songs generated some international interest and the band played showcases in NXNE, Toronto and Paris for Sofar Sounds. Back with new, even more ambitious material, Broken Fires are looking forward to sharing another full length album with the world later in 2025. “Lighthouse”, the first single from their forthcoming third studio album was released in April, immediately picking up BBC Introducing radio play in their native Wales from Adam Walton and Bethan Elfyn. Second single East London Hotel is out 6 June. “The luminous quality of those harmonies… really do give you a sense of hope. Really, really, really good” - Adam Walton, BBC Introducing Wales “Somewhere between the 80’s guitar landscapes of The Cult, the upbeat-melancholy of The Wombats, and the emotive vocal drive of The Joy Formidable. Shwing.” - Killing Moon “I am in love with this band and their hugely ambitious sound” - Bethan Elfyn, BBC Introducing Wales Nova Scotia (Stage @ 845pm) Nova Scotia is a Cardiff-based alternative band blending shoegaze and grunge influences. Formed in 2022 by Ophelia (vocals), Conor (guitar), Libby (drums), Jack (guitar), and Glen (bass), the group draws inspiration from artists like Slowdive, Deftones, and Paramore. Their debut single Wire Mother earned airplay on BBC Radio, with Adam Walton praising its mix of Slowdive’s ethereal tones and Deftones’ heaviness, calling it “brilliant.” Following up with Pretty Lies, Nova Scotia showcased a dynamic fusion of ambient soundscapes, driving drums, and infectious melodies. Their latest release, “Teething”, embraces a heavier, My Bloody Valentine-inspired wall of sound, combining fuzzy guitars with shimmering clean tones. Known for electrifying live shows, including a packed-out headline at The Moon in Cardiff, Nova Scotia continues to build momentum, actively performing across the UK and aiming for wider European audiences. SHIMMER (Stage @ 8pm) SHIMMER is a boy band. But man, unlike some boy bands we could mention they write some absolutely killer alternative pop. Expect warm bass tones, class melodies and a whole alt-pop-sadness vibe that will simultaneously add a hefty dose of melancholy to your evening and lift you up ready for the summer.
