The band is Henry's Funeral Shoe from Ystrad Mynach - 2 piece bluesy rock band signed to Alive Records in the US(Black Key/sTwo Gallants etc) http://www.myspace.com/henrysfuneralshoe

Glad you liked them. Playing Greenman festival with The Doves and Flaming Lips in August which is hell of a gig for them. Also off back to Holland/France in August for a 3 week tour. They've just come back from a 6 week euro tour which they did about 30 shows.

2 brothers who have been in bands for years etc. Only Uk band on the US label and rave reviews from around the world.

Some video's of them http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4kbc0rC ... re=related This was from a festival in Holland. They were meant to play 4pm but ended up headlining it to around 600 people which was awesome for them.

More closer to home video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3tDL7YG ... re=related

The Aberdare reference was about quite a few at the gig, the singer used to be in a band from the area and still good mates with alot of us
