Mae Pedair yn dwyn ynghŷd dalentau pedair o artistiaid gwerin arobryn amlycaf Cymru: Gwenan Gibbard, Gwyneth Glyn, Meinir Gwilym a Siân James. A'r pedair yn artistiaid rhyngwladol blaengar eu hunain, maent yn ffynnu wrth gydweithio a pherfformio'n fyw. Gyda'i gilydd dônt â bywyd newydd i ddeunydd traddodiadol gyda threfniannau newydd ar delynau, gitârs, piano ac acordion.
Mae eu perfformiadau byw wedi cydio yn nychymyg a chalonnau cynulleidfaoedd, gyda'u harmonîau ysgubol, ymdriniaeth grefftus o'r traddodiad, ac agosatrwydd y caneuon maent yn eu cyfansoddi.
Gan gyfuno eu doniau unigryw fel chwedl-ganwyr, maent yn tynnu eu deunydd o'r traddodiad barddol a llafar, yn ogystal â gwerin. Mae hynny'n cyfuno'n naturiol gyda'u crefft fel cantorion-gyfansoddwyr medrus, a'u caneuon gwreiddiol yn ymateb i gyflwr presennol y byd, gwytnwch byd natur, a chyda phwyslais arbennig ar roi llais i'r ferch.
*****
Pedair, feminine form of 'pedwar' ('four' in Welsh) draws on the talents of four of Wales' most prominent and award-winning folk artists: Gwenan Gibbard, Gwyneth Glyn, Meinir Gwilym and Siân James. Groundbreaking international artists in their own right, all four thrive on collaboration and the thrill of live performance. Together they bring to life traditional material with new arrangements on harps, guitars, piano and accordion.

Their live performances have captured the imaginations and hearts of audiences with their sweeping harmonies, fresh interpretations of the Welsh folk tradition, and intimacy of songwriting.

Bringing together their unique gifts as song-tellers, the source material and inspiration from the poetic, oral and folk traditions of Wales and beyond. This is coupled with their deftness as songwriters, responding to the current state of the world, the resilience of nature, with a particular interest in giving voice to the woman.
