Jamie Laval returns to TFAC for Winter Solstice celebration

Jamie Laval’s Celtic Christmas captures the beauty and atmosphere of Scotland, Ireland, Brittany and Iceland during the holidays, weaving a tapestry of music, dance, poetry, and stories that hearken back to the ancient Celtic celebrations associated with the Winter Solstice and Christmas. Join us on Friday, Dec. 30 at 7:30 p.m. for this entertaining and thought-provoking family holiday experience.

Headlining the show is Tryon-based violinist and storyteller Jamie Laval. In 2002, Laval won the U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Championship, performed for Her Majesty The Queen, and presented a TED talk.

Laval’s recent album “Murmurs and Drones” won the popular vote for Best World Traditional Album in the 2012 Independent Music Awards. Jamie will be joined by an impressive lineup of Celtic performers for a one-of-a-kind evening.
