Cerddor a darlunydd o Gymru
[English below]
Prosiect cerddorol 'global-alt-pop' a chomedi yw Worldwide Welshman, wedi ei arweinio gan Liam Rickard (un rhan o'r fand Lo-Fi Jones, ac o'r cyn-fandiau Timestealers a Naughty Magic Simon). Ganwyd y syniad yn 2015 yn Eryri, ac yn fuan ar ol hynny, aeth Liam i Lundain i ddilyn ei freuddwyd o creu band rhyngwladol traws-ardull.
Mae Worldwide Welshman yn perfformio ar ei ben ei hun ac efo band.

A singer-songwriter and novelty-alt-pop artist from North Wales, and one of Europe's favourite little-known, underground pan-global party bands, Worldwide Welshman takes you on an exhilarating musical journey with infectious tunes, quirky humour, and multilingual musings on modern life.
The first incarnation, Worldwide Welshman & Beyond, was formed out of the jamming scene of East London around 2016. Since then, the project has grown into a multi-national flexi-band with alternative lineups in Belgium, Germany and Wales.
Together, they create a rich tapestry of folk, jazz & funk flavours; a cosmopolitan sound celebrating the cultural melting-pot of modern Europe.
"The unlimited Welsh-tapas of pan-global alt.pop."
"Rhan allweddol o'r gymyned cerddorol ym Machynlleth...wastad yn brofiad, wastad bach yn chaotic ond hefyd yn hollol wych...athrylith!" - Cerys Hafana, Radio Cymru, Rhagfyr 2022

Testomonies
“You'll be so busy dancing that you won't notice the beautifully crafted mix of western pop, Spanish folk, middle-eastern and Asian music being played by this band!” - MJ Moon Rock Show, Radio Beacon
"Saw Liam and his Welsh backing band at the Blue Sky Cafe in Bangor last night. Absolute genius! 100% entertainment. Totally loved it. Definitely the best act on last night and the others were excellent" - Claire Murray via FB, album Launch in Blue Sky Cafe, Bangor, 2018
"there is nothing quite like this act. He begins seemingly haltingly, even amateurishly, but suddenly he's singing in Arabic, and now Breton, and this song really moves me, and these other musicians are brilliant, and now it's Chinese and people seem to be singing along to this one, now they're dancing - EVERYONE'S dancing, even I'M dancing... this boy is GONNA BE FAMOUS..." - Paddy Screech via FB, Word on the Water, London, 2018
"Great, funny, lovely, listen!!!" - Simi Barazi via FB, Tübingen, 2019
"Just shut up, or I'm going have to stop this bus" - London bus driver, 2016, London
"We didn't understand the Welsh bits, but we loved it" - Mr & Mrs Blogs
