Melys | Second Wind
Melys | Second Wind. RSD 2025.
Welsh Indie Legends Melys return with their highly anticipated first album of new material in 20 years.
In typical Melys style, Second Wind features songs of both darkness and light. From the uncomfortable subject matter of domestic abuse (Bruises) poison relationships (Love yourself) to the more uplifting Llawenydd (Joy) and recent single 'Santa Cruz', inspired by a sunny Californian road trip. '5 Star t*ts' (With guest guitar from Pendulum's Peredur Ap Gwynedd) refers to sexism taken from singer Andrea's personal experience when during a single review in the noughties music press, members of a very well known band, said they would give the single an extra star if she had big tits. To add insult to injury, that music paper then printed the quotes on its front page.
Recorded in their own homes in both Wales and Scotland, Second Wind has been both a learning experience and labour of love for the band. Mixed by the legendary Welsh producer Gorwel Owen (Super Furry Animals, Gorkys Zygotic Mwnci, Datbygu, Gwenno etc) the band kept their friends near.
Hailing from the small tourist village of Betws-y-Coed in Eryri, Wales, this bi-lingual singing band were huge favourites of the late Radio One DJ John Peel who the band recorded 11 sessions and outside broadcasts for.
