Al would go on to perform slots at the Wakestock Festival alongside Mark Ronson and at the inaugural Swn Festival in Cardiff.
Having established himself as a familiar face on the Welsh language music scene, 2008 saw two further releases, Dilyn Pob Cam and One Way Love Affair EP, gaining Al further exposure via plays on ´óÏó´«Ã½ 6 Music among others.
In 2009 Lewis released his first Welsh album, reaching number one in the Welsh language album charts, and a new EP called Skin & Bones in collaboration with fellow Welsh singer/songwriter Sarah Howells.
