Pererin was a Welsh folk-rock band that recorded three albums in the 80s. They performed traditional and traditionally inspired original material that combined spiritual and romantic themes. They sang only in Welsh, and even English sleeve notes are hard to find. Their original LPs command a high price, but recent CD reissues have guaranteed their accessibility and their legacy. Pererin evolved from a more overtly progressive rock group named Bran that released three albums between 1975 and 1978, to release three of their own from 1980 to 1982. While Pererin emphasized the folk element, they were no less progressive, thanks to thoughtful arrangements that featured plenty of mellotron and mildly acidic electric guitar, imaginative percussion, ambitious song structures, and various mood shifts.
