The upcoming St. David's Day marks the second annual Welsh festival in Los Angeles, where participants from Wales, Welsh descendants and Welsh ex-pats will all converge on the Cinefamily Silent Movie Theater in Hollywood, California on March 1st. The festival promises to be a smashing hit with headliner Meinir Gwilym making her North American debut. Additionally, accomplished harpsichordist Christopher D. Lewis from Rhiwbina will be performing a set of British and Welsh tunes, while the angelic harmonies of the Welsh Choir of Southern California will rejoice in Welsh tradition, and beginning the concert will be the beautiful harp music of Aedan MacDonnell. Included in the festivities will be a Welsh language workshop by Jason Shepherd of Swansea, Welsh food and gifts, book release encompassing artists from Wales and the US, and crafts for the kids. Everyone is encouraged to join and learn the exciting history and culture of Welsh and Welsh Americans.

"I'm very excited to see the reaction of attendees when Meinir Gwilym takes the stage." Festival Curator Lorin Morgan-Richards states, "There is no greater musician right now that has yet to perform in the states.” Meinir will be performing songs from her upcoming album which will be available at the show. The Cinefamily Silent Movie Theater is a historic venue that has seen many famous faces grace its stage as guests from Vaudeville up through contemporary acts, and being in Hollywood, the Welsh festival also has had generous support from Welsh stars like Michael Sheen, Ioan Gruffudd, Henry Thomas, and the families of Richard Burton and Frank Lloyd Wright.
