Burum are a truly unique Welsh band that fuse both the Welsh folk tradition and jazz. Burum's repertoire is drawn from Welsh traditional music, adapted and re-imagined for a modern jazz sextet. The band's music fuses a deep respect for the original folk melodies themselves with the flexibility and dynamics of jazz improvisation - beautiful, melancholic melodies are performed alongside fiery solos and deep grooves.
The brothers Tomos and Daniel Williams lead many of Wales' most creative and in-demand musicians: young folk virtuoso Patrick Rimes on bag-pipes and flute (yes! bag-pipes...it really works!), rising star Aidan Thorne on bass, Dave Jones on piano and the astonishing Mark O'Connor on drums. Burum have released four albums; Alawon (2007), Caniadau (2012), Llef (2016) and most recently 'Eneidiau' (2022).
