Many fans remember her for her performance with Tom Jones when they teamed up to produce a Christmas duet in 1999, Baby it's Cold Outside.
But Cerys has come a long way since her time as lead singer of Catatonia, critics say.
Now busier than ever, she recently won the Eisteddfod award for contemporary song - the first time it had been bestowed in seven years.
It is Cerys's wide-ranging and discerning taste in music which has led to her hosting her own daily radio show on BBC 6's Music as well as writing and presenting a variety of TV programmes.
During her performance she will feature old and new songs written and collected by Cerys during her far-reaching travels and will be backed by two of Nashville's finest young musicians, Kevin Teel and Mason Neely.
Tickets cost £20. A limited number of free tickets are available for young people under 26.
