Cllr De’Ath said: “I’m a child of the nineties so Britpop was a big deal for me and I was a huge Morrissey fan as well. But growing up in Warwickshire, if you wanted to see live music, or play a gig, the only way to do it was get on a train to Coventry or Birmingham. I think that’s why one of the things I really love about living in Cardiff now is its music scene.”

[Presumably that includes Spillers. This could get awkward!]
