Event information

CVC, or Church Village Collective in full, named their band after the sleepy Welsh town they come from & if they have it their way, will soon bring international renown to their hometown.

The six-piece musical collective are influenced by Snoop Dogg, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Super Furry Animals & Red Hot Chili Peppers and are comprised of singer Francesco Orsi, bassist Ben Thorne, drummer Tom Fry, keyboardist Daniel ‘Nanial’ Jones and singing guitarists David Bassey and Elliot Bradfield.

It’s worth noting that the latter two, despite never having met them, are related to Welsh royalty Dame Shirley Bassey & Manic Street Preachers’ James Dean Bradfield, respectively. Maybe owing to genetics, Bassey states “I don’t think I’d be able to not do this, I don’t actively choose to, I’m just drawn to it” - the CVC message is a universal one “peace and love and good times, stay real, stay true and that’s it.”

Their 'Welsh Music Prize' Nominated debut album 'Get Real', produced by the band & mixed by Ross Orton (Arctic Monkeys), was released at the start of 2023 to critical acclaim ("A cracking debut album of feelgood, uber-retro gems" - NME, "A remarkably fully formed debut" - The Times), followed by tours of sold-out venues in the UK and wowing crowds across Europe & in the USA ("CVC are a remarkable experience, one which everyone should see at least once" - Buzz Magazine).

Work on Album 2 is now well underway, so…

Come Join The Collective!
