Sian James Siân yw un o gantorion cyfoes mwyaf blaenllaw Cymru ac un o’n prif aroleswyr ym myd cerddoriaeth traddodiadol. Canai’r delyn Geltaidd, mae’n bianydd o fri, ac yn gyfansoddwr. Mae ei dawn fel perfformwraig wedi mynd â hi i theatrau a gwyliau cerddorol ledled y byd ac fe’i pherchir fel un o’n prif llysgenhadon cerddorol. Erbyn hyn mae hi wedi rhyddhau naw albym o’i gwaith – casgliadau eclectig o ganeuon gwreiddiol a thraddodiadol a gwmpasai ein emosiynau tyfnaf, o gariad a chwerthin, i golled a’r byd ysbrydol. Mae Siân yn enwog am ei gallu greddfol i gyfleu emosiwn twfn yn ei chaneuon a hynny gyda didwylledd ac angerdd. Yn 2014 bu’n cyd-weithio ar brosiect cerddorol gyda chantorion o Gairo, ac ymysg ei theithiau diweddar oedd cyngherddau yn Kansas City, China, Vietnam a Phatagonia. Breintiwyd hi yn 2007 a’i gwneud yn Gymrodyr o Brifysgol Bangor am ei chyfraniad i ddiwylliant Cymru, ac yn ddiweddar fe’u urddwyd yn aelod drwy anrhydedd i’r Gorsedd yn Eisteddfod Genedlaethol Meifod.
