Bettina Sheppard spent her childhood playing on the grounds of Caerphilly Castle in Wales. The influences of hearing indigenous instruments-Welsh harp, bodhran, flutes, whilstles and bagpipes, shaped her lifelong affinity for Celtic music. The music of Bettina's current CD, "Brythonwen", is a true melding of her Celtic roots and the rhythms of Africa and the Middle East.
