I love rocks. Look at these right next to my wheel. Are they volcanic or sedimentary? What story do they tell? Can’t wait to find out.

Fabulous! 😂 Altogether then: NORD!

[Beth Malcolm @BethMalc]

@AlmostCressida @ccfest Can vouch for this... I genuinely rolled on someone else's identical Nord keyboard onto the stage by accident at the Concert Hall...

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

ohhhhhHHH YESSSSSSSSS 👀✨😱😍 #ElephantSesh @ccfest is so far up my street it’s on the same council tax band as me

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

#ElephantSesh was a highlight of the launch concert for me so v excited for the full shebang

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

Spending lunch hour watching #ElephantSesh @ccfest and before the music even starts I have to say I’m obsessed with this lighting

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

@thejobreeze That’s an instant bonus 😍

I mean has there ever been a time @KrisDrever hasn’t been a 100% top class act? (No.) This set is, as ever, absolute bliss. #CelticConnections2021

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

We absolutely love @leventdunord and have done since we first encountered them at @faircropfest. They’re smashing it again here 😍

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

In this house we all have to shout “NORD!” and drink when someone has a Nord keyboard in @ccfest. Double whammy with @leventdunord - one “NORD!” for the keyboard then the band name came on screen so we all yelled “NORD!” again (I’m TT so it’s just tonic water but still!)

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

@_queerfeminist That is the biggest compliment ever tbh 🥺🥰

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

A set from the truly brilliant Jose Gonzalez is EXACTLY the way to round off the weekend. Bliss. Thank you @ccfest #CelticConnections2021

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

Damn... “Cabin” by @thesecretsister is a big song. Important and raw and brilliant. #CelticConnections2021

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

Ooooooo the Secret Sisters are new to me - I like! I like very much! Thanks @ccfest!

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

Should add: it was buying the 2005 @katerusby album Girl Who Couldn’t Fly JUST because Woomble guested on it that led to me being the dyed in the wool folky I am now so 🥂 cheers for the gateway drug, Mr W!

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

Ahhh @RoddyWoomble; my first true love (aka rock star crush) when I was 14. Have followed* him ever since. Lovely to see him at @ccfest.
*Musically - not geographically; I’m not a creep. But you all should’ve seen my Year 10 student planner, mind. A work of art, it was.

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

Still a day behind on @ccfest - double bill to catch up tonight and loving @gnossmusic. Hendrix polka: ‘scuse me while I kiss the Skye #SorryNotSorry #BadPuns

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

@owenralph I buy music first and then stream it thereafter; I figure once the transaction is done, the artist has my money - if I can keep sending pennies by means of listening online as well then why wouldn’t I

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

My mother, gawping at @MohsenAminiMuso’s playing: “...it’s getting crowded at that crossroads...”

[Almost Cressida @AlmostCressida]

We’re a day behind on @ccfest but suffice to say @TaliskMusic just got a standing ovation in this West Wales living room
