A Llanelli music shop is set to close after more than 15 years of trading in the town. Cadno Music Cymru in John Street has drawn famous faces as well as regular customers through its doors. The store shuts for good at the end of July, once its retirement sale ends.
Alun Rees, 65, of Loughor, the owner of Cadno Music, said: “I feel apprehensive as well as looking forward to it. I have been at it for around 15 years, it’s been a love of a lifetime. It’s had some very funny moments. We opened up in January 2007 and had a small place in Stepney Place and in August 2008 we moved to John Street, where we are now. We wanted to have a music school and it’s a very successful music school and we are looking for someone to buy it."
He added: “We have got interested parties in the music school but not necessarily the store. We have done a lot of performing with local young bands over the years - we did a Llanelli Battle of the Bands. The last day for the shop is July 31 hopefully the school will continue after that.”
