An Interview With Welsh Wizard - Bryn Yemm

Ceri Shaw - @ceri-shaw
10 Jan 2021

Bryn Yemm in India AmeriCymru: Hi Bryn and many thanks for agreeing to this interview. When did you first start singing and when did you realise that this was to be your future? Bryn: As an adopted little boy in Abergavenny Wales the family who took me in were a Salvation Army family and I spent all my formative years being raised in the Sunday School, Sunday morning and afternoon. So the bands and songsters awoke in me a chance to sing. I tried also to learn the cornet, but due to lack of practice I soon lost interest. I was very young and wanted to be down...
