Jamie Laval Summer Solstice Concert
Live via Zoom
Sunday, June 23rd
Hello Friends!
To celebrate midsummer solstice this year, I'll be returning to my musical roots with a program of beloved traditional Irish and Scottish folk tunes that have been passed down through the ages.
Joining me in my home studio is Evan Kinney, the terrific guitarist and powerful rhythm maker from Atlanta. We'll highlight time honored Celtic melodies with a particular focus on tunes played for ceilidh dances (social dances).
Please join us on Sunday, June 23 as we pay musical homage to the arrival of long summer days and the constancy of music throughout the centuries.
See you soon!
JAMIE

SCOTTISH MOVIE NIGHT
Our June Scottish Movie Night will be on Sunday,
June 23rd. Please note that this is the fourth
Sunday in June. Again, it will start at 6:00 p.m. We
will enjoy the 1986 live action film “The
Highlander.” It’s a tale of an immortal Scottish
swordsman who must confront the last of his
immortal opponents.
These movie nights have been very popular, and
we urge more Caledonians to join us. The Zoom
