Aberdare Music

Welcome!

Calendar

With the fantastic music scene in Aberdare and the surrounding areas, the great promoters, like Voodoo Lobster Promotions and the up and coming bands like The Kix and The Warthogs, I thought it was about time we had somewhere to post details of upcoming gigs in Aberdare.

With a bit of help from you music lovers, we can also post reviews of artists and venues, and help to keep the scene alive.
