Kizzy Crawford

Kizzy was born in Oxford, but when her parents divorced in 1999, moved with her mother, sister and grandparents to Aberaeron and later Llandeilo before settling in Merthyr Tydfil, Her mother is from the south-east of England but she spent her childhood holidays with her grandparents in Disserth, Powys and always wanted to raise her children in Wales.[21] In 2015, she released the single "Shout Out / Yr Alwad", a co-write with Owen Powell; the track was selected as the soundtrack to the Visit Wales 2015 National TV & Online Campaign.[22] Crawford performed at the Euro 16 Welsh team homecoming gig at Cardiff City Stadium alongside the Manic Street Preachers.[24] Later in 2016, Crawford collaborated with jazz pianist and composer Gwilym Simcock on Birdsong - Can Yr Adar, based on the Welsh rainforest in Carngafallt.[citation needed] In September 2019, Crawford sang Calon Lân with her sister Eädyth at a YesCymru rally in Merthyr Tydfil expressing her support for Welsh independence.
