Mini bio

How it started.

Iwan grew up in Cardiff after his family moved from Carmarthen when he was five. He began writing songs and singing at 16, fronted The Convictions, and later trained at LAMDA. Youth theatre and the National Eisteddfod were part of his route into performing.

Finding an audience.

His performance as Moritz Stiefel in the London production of Spring Awakening earned him a 2010 Olivier Award. Television brought him to a wider audience as Simon Bellamy in Misfits, followed by Ramsay Bolton in Game of Thrones.

Songs on his own terms.

Three early EPs led to Dinard in 2015. He fitted recording around acting, then took more time with his second album, I Just Wish I’d Never Gone to Space, released in July 2025. Both albums were made independently; he values the creative control he has in the studio.

Welsh and English.

His second album includes both languages. In his Good Vibrations interview, Iwan explained that singing in Welsh connects him with a younger part of himself and with the singing culture he grew up around.
