Tich Gwilym Biography

Tich Gwilym is one of the most popular and richest Guitarist who was born on September 10, 1950 in Llwynypia, Wales, United Kingdom.

Tich Gwilym (10 September 1950 – 19 June 2005), born Robert Gwilliam, was a Welsh rock guitarist who was most notable for his Hendrix inspired version of the Welsh national anthem, Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau, considered one of the most famous renditions of the song.

Tich found fame in the 1970s, when as part of Geraint Jarman a’r Cynganeddwyr, he recorded the Welsh national anthem on the electric guitar. The Jimi Hendrix inspired version, which first appeared on Jarman’s 1978 album also called Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau, became synonymous with Tich and has appeared on compilation albums of Welsh artists. In 2006, an eight track recording of the Welsh national anthem was ‘discovered’ in London. At the time it was alleged that this was a lost version by Hendrix, though others claimed that it was a rendition by Tich. When approached, ex-band member Gerarint Jarman dismissed both claims, stating that ‘It’s definitely not Tich because his style was more like Hendrix’s than the actual tape’. It was later discovered that the version was a hoax, perpetrated by record producer Martin Davies and ex-guitarist of The Vibrators, John Ellis.
