A flashback to what was Oasis’ first comeback gig in Cardiff… back in the old CIA! Albeit on a much bigger scale this time around… . @UtilitaArenaCDF.#Oasis25 #OasisLive25.

Happy 80th birthday to the queen of punk and new wave! Here’s Debbie Harry, casually knocking out the rap from Rapture two years ago at Cardiff Castle. Fantastic for any flippin’ age!.#Blondie #DebbieHarry.

Nile Rodgers’ Chic are just joyful - one of the best bands you can catch at a festival. But seeing #Glastonbury security staff join in the moves for ‘Le Freak’ adds a little extra sunshine to your Sunday!🕺🏻.#Chic #Glastonbury2025

Quite a sight to see nearly 200,000 people blasting out ‘Da Ya Think I’m Sexy’ with Rod Stewart at #Glastonbury. Love how this has gone from being a cheesy disco hit… to the biggest guilty pleasure of them all! 🕺🏻. #RodStewart.#Glastonbury2025

Hearing so many acts at #Glastonbury being overexcitedly described as ‘iconic’. Surely, the more ‘iconic’ acts there are, the less ‘iconic’ they become. Now, isn’t that ironic… don’t you think?.#Glastonbury2025.

‘Delighted to be back in Wales - the land of song’… superb Sting set at #Cardiff Castle!. Just 30 minutes in and we’ve had ‘Message in a Bottle’, ‘Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic’, ‘Englishman in New York’ and ‘Fields of Gold’. Complete crowdpleasers!.#Sting @DepotCardiff

As Glastonbury collaborations go, Peter Capaldi joining Franz Ferdinand was not on the Bingo Card. But kinda cathartic watching Malcolm Tucker blasting ‘Take Me Out’!. #Glastonbury #Glastonbury2025 .#FranzFerdinand #PeterCapaldi

☀️ Warming up this weekend… potentially reaching heatwave status across SE Wales. 📈 Monday could be our hottest day of the year so far. The current record of 30.8C was recorded in Whitechurch, Pembs last Friday.

Quick game of ‘Guess who’s playing Cardiff’s Principality Stadium’… based on the queue and the merch stand?!. Clue: lots of young women in floaty dresses and cowgirl boots. Bright shawls and pink cowboy hats selling well….#Cardiff

Happy Summer Solstice! The 'longest day' looks like another hot one - with nearly 17 hours of daylight for much of Wales. Look out for some superb sunsets later! ☀️.#SummerSolstice

Sad news about Wincey Willis. Bringing back big memories of the early days of Breakfast TV. And for 80s kids, the line ‘John Kettley is a weatherman… and so is Wincey Willis’, brought a level of pop culture notoriety, that went way beyond a namecheck in a one-hit wonder. 📀

If you’re a music fan, moved by the passing of Brian Wilson and Sly Stone, worth playing this on BBC Sounds. @CrowleyOnAir pays a touching tribute, with shared memories and a sincere celebration of the music. It’s a lovely listen - GC just gets it. 📻

Caught Steely Dan in concert a few back. Love their music so much, that last night I saw the next best thing. Nearly Dan live at @GlobeCardiff. Surely one of the best names for a tribute band ever?!.#SteelyDan #Cardiff
