“3 Acres and a Cow's Welsh sister show - Gadael Tir (Leave Land), a show in English that follows the trials and tribulations of the common folk who strove to build the nation from the ground up. As we tell theirstory through sing-along choruses of traditional songs; heart wrenching tales of desperation and perseverance; cross-dressing, axe wielding farmers; radical preachers, land workers and unions - all encompassed by a thousand years of history squeezed into one performance!”
From: GADAEL TIR: STORY WELSH LAND RIGHTS AND PROTEST

““SARATHY INSTANTLY CAUGHT MY ATTENTION WHEN HE SAID HE WANTED TO MAKE AN ALBUM THAT EMBRACED BOTH INDIAN FOLK MUSIC AND JAZZ - TWO WORLDS THAT HAVE HAD A BIG INFLUENCE ON ME. HIS ALBUM SUCCEEDS IN BRINGING THESE THINGS TOGETHER IN AN ELEGANT WAY, BUT IT’S HIS OWN STYLE AND IDEAS THAT COME THROUGH THE MOST IN THE MUSIC. REFRESHINGLY DIFFERENT, THIS IS A DEEP AND POWERFUL LISTENING EXPERIENCE.””
From: Sarathy Korwar
