Cymdeithas yr Iaith's (Welsh Language Society) Entertainment Team are very pleased to announce Eitha Tal Ffranco will be headlining the fourth 'Taith Tafod' which will be held in April and May this year. Bandana, the winners of Cymdeithas yr Iaith Battle of the Bands 2008 will be supporting on the tour which will visit each part of Wales.Lowri Johnston, the co-ordinator of the entertainment group said:"This will be the fourth tour organised by Cymdeithas yr Iaith, since the first tour back in 2006. The purpose of the tour is to arrange gigs of a high standard in each part of the country and to give a stage to the young bands from Wales to perform in Welsh. It's also a chance for young people to socialise in Welsh, and to receive information about the general political activities of the society. We're very exited that so many brilliant Welsh bands are joining us on the tour, including Eitha Tal ffranco, Huw M, Wyrligigs, Creision Hud, Y Ffrwchnedd, Osian Hedd, Betti Galws, Steffan Huw and Candella. I can't wait!"

Eitha Tal Ffranco released their album in 2008, 'Os ti'n Ffosil', and their dynamic sets prove to be very popular. The tour gives them a chance to play to new audiences across Wales.According to Daf from the band,"I'm looking forward to Taith Tafod this year more than I'm looking forward to receiving my pet elephant through the post. Everyone should come to the gigs, but expect a couple of surprises!"The tour is visiting new locations this year, as well as familiar favourites. The six locations are Crymych, Merthyr Tudful, Swansea, Aberystwyth, Bala and Bangor.
