No evidence of any notability. Nominated for a minor award and received a very minor award and nominated for an award at the National Eisteddfod doesn't make for notability. Fails WP:GNG Velella ^{Velella Talk} 11:03, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, on the basis they're a very well-established Welsh band (almost unavoidable at Wales festivals at the moment). They won the best Welsh language band award in two of the first three years of the award's existence, and though this may be of no interest to non-Welsh speaking Wikipedia editors, the awards are reported by the BBC and the Wales national media, so clearly taken seriously. They also recorded the song Rhedeg i Paris to support the Wales football team at the 2016 European Championships. Sionk (talk) 11:46, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
