about
Angor is a Welsh song I wrote in June 2028. I spent the month as an artist in residence in a little caravan (The CARNafan) just outside the castle walls of Caernarfon, North Wales. My time here involved inviting people to come into the space and tell me a story; I would then turn these stories into folk songs. It was an incredibly inspiring time for me and a very productive month. I wrote, recorded and printed a limited edition physical EP (which can also be purchased at cegrecords.com/eve-goodman. I was also lucky enough to have Paul Hanks film a beautiful music video for me: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxTtn5q5844.
Angor is a the story of a woman who has lived all her life on the safety of dry land, protected by mountains. Now she is being beckoned by the sea and her watery depths, with promises of new inspiration and a surrendering to the unknown. The unknown is not pretty, but it is beautiful, and it is necessary for her to go there.
lyrics
Mi glywais swn y môr yn mynd
Fi di’ch ysbrydiolaeth, ffrind
Dewch ymlaen, mae ‘na le ar y cwch
Does ddim breuddwydion yn y llwch
Mae gen i ofn, dywedais i
Dwi byth di adael Eryri
Mae na adlais cân yn y mynyddoedd
A mae llais y gwynt yn deffro’r coed
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
A beth sydd gennych i’w gynnig i mi?
Oria o wacter wela i
Ffarwel i’r traeth, a’r blodau meibion
Dwi'n mynd i mewn i dyfroedd gleision
Mae’r tir yn cadw ti mewn rhew
Dewch i’r tonnau, dewch i fewn
Does gennych chi ddim plant new gwr
Dewch I’r tonnau, dewch i’r dwr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Nai hwylio allan, nai hwylio’i fewn
Nai adael tir, i fod yn ddewr
A teithio lawr i’r dyfroedd oer
I nofio yn y glesni doeth
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Angor, angor, dal fi lawr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr
Mae’r gwynt yn gryf
A hwyr di’r awr

Love the complexity of this track and the rising and falling of the violins, and the texture. Makes me want to dance.
Thank you so much for this album. I really love it, and find it really inspiring my own work on the Witchcraft Trials ❤️ tararosehip
Listening to this album's rich, beautiful melodies and spirited performances feels like seeing a fantastical other-world emerge from the Earth itself. The emotions running through "A Mermaid at Fearn" are so complex and genuine it could convince anyone that mermaids are really out there. Gyakuten
A stunning album of finger-picked guitar, banjo & more that mines the classic sound of Appalachia and emerges with something fresh. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 30, 2018

Anna Arobas makes intricate, otherworldly folk-pop with delicate, glacial arrangements but a howl of heartbreak at the center. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 11, 2022
