Written by I. Hendry
"Magical Hidden Valley" is inspired by a hidden Welsh valley, cradled by mountains, where Demi escapes the clamor of the world. It’s her refuge — a space adorned with wildflowers, twisting paths, and soft golden light. Whenever life gets too intense, she roams the hills above the valley, gazing down at its peaceful beauty and sparking new melodies and stories. This song encapsulates the serenity, wonder, and creative magic she finds there, where the mountains keep her secrets and the valley inspires her.

“Aberfan” serves as a touching and respectful tribute to the children, teachers, and families impacted by the 1966 Aberfan disaster in South Wales. Sung through Demi Du’Ville’s soulful, 1960s-inspired voice, the song encapsulates the sorrow of a morning that forever altered a community — when the school bell fell silent, and the village awaited footsteps that would never return.
Crafted with heartfelt compassion, this piece pays homage to the memory of those who were lost, honors the resilience of the survivors, and celebrates the unbreakable spirit of a Welsh community that will always be remembered. “Aberfan” offers a serene moment of remembrance — a time for stillness, love, and reflection for a tragedy that remains close to the heart of our nation.

"When I Come Back Home"
"When I Come Back Home" tells the story of Demi Du’Ville as she escapes the chaos, tight schedules, and late-night recording sessions of London’s vibrant music scene to return to the serene Welsh farmhouse of her childhood. Amidst the performances, recordings, and the hustle of the city, her home serves as a refuge — a place of stability. The song beautifully depicts the moment she glimpses the valley again through the train window, the warmth of her parents waiting at the end of the lane, and the sense of comfort that envelops her the instant she steps inside. It’s a heartfelt, nostalgic soul ballad that reflects on finding solace in the place that molded her — along with the bittersweet longing she experiences each time she has to part from it.

DEMI DU’VILLE – COMPLETE BACKSTORY
(Authentic, emotional, Soulful heart, rooted in Wales & the 1960s)
Demi Du’Ville was born in a quaint stone farmhouse tucked away in the heart of the Welsh valleys, enveloped by rolling hills, serene lanes, and the love of two devoted parents who shaped her upbringing.
From her earliest memories, music was a constant presence in the home — her father’s cherished vinyl records, her mother softly humming melodies while hanging laundry in the fresh valley breeze, and the gentle crackle of the radio wafting through the kitchen.
Demi grew up surrounded by a sense of wonder: the flickering glow of the fire on chilly winter evenings, the scent of coal and rain, and the belief that music could transform even the simplest moments into something extraordinary.
Her parents nurtured her talent — a unique, soulful voice that conveyed both innocence and deep emotion far beyond her tender years.
By her teenage years, Demi had developed a passion for the glamorous voices of the 1960s — Dusty Springfield, Dionne Warwick, Petula Clark. She absorbed their sounds while infusing her own unmistakable Welsh essence, merging vintage soul with the heartache and hope of valley life.
As she matured, Demi ventured beyond Wales to pursue her aspirations, yet she carried the essence of the valleys with her in every performance.
She found herself gracing the stages of smoky London clubs, recording in dimly lit studios, and navigating the vibrant city streets that felt worlds apart from her roots. The dazzling lights excited her — but the longing for the Welsh hills never left her heart.
Each time she returned home by train, watching the farmhouse emerge through the window, her heart would rise and fall in unison.
Returning home brought her Peace.
Departing again chipped away at her heart a little more each time.
Her music captures that deep yearning — the desire for home, the strong connection with her parents, and the poignant beauty of growing up and moving on.
From Christmas In The City to Leave The Light On, No One Told The Sky (To Fall) and When I Come Back Home, Demi’s tunes weave together nostalgia, warmth, and a Soulful 60s vibe that feels both ageless and profoundly personal.
Today, Demi Du’Ville is celebrated as a fictional Welsh soul legend of the 1960s — brought to life through art, storytelling, and music by Songwriter I. Hendry— designed to illuminate the emotions we all hold dear: Home. Love. Memory. And the melodies that linger with us eternally. more updated story of what Demi gets up to next, Coming Soon.
"This Side of the Road" serves as a touching homage to the miners of the South Wales Valleys — individuals who labored underground while entire communities thrived above.

As time went on and the mines shut down, only decaying pit wheels, vacant baths, and fading recollections were left behind. This song encapsulates the intersection of the old world and the new — a space where pride, loss, and hope coexist on the same side of the road.
