Jordan Williams added to the bill for Paul Potts show in Llanelli


Popular 'Rising Star' 17-year-old Jordan Williams has been added to the bill for next month's big Paul Potts show in Llanelli.

Cor Curiad’s 20th Anniversary Celebration Concert
Selwyn Samuel Centre, Llanelli
25th April 2015
Artistes:
Paul Potts
Cor Curiad
Burry Port Band
Jordan Williams
Kevin Johns 

Ysgol Y Strade pupil Jordan has been catapulted to the limelight especially over the past year.
It all started with a leading role as the Phantom in Llanelli’s SA15 Stage School production of the Phantom of the Opera. 
This followed with numerous praiseworthy appearances on the concert stage. Jordan’s appearances have included prestigious events such as in the Llanelli Rotary Club’s World War I Gala Concert, the Royal British Legion’s Festival of Remembrance at the Brangwyn Hall, the Annual Concert of Kidwelly Festival Choir, at private functions in Llanelly House and Stradey Castle and at last year’s Civic Service of Llanelli’s Town Mayor.
Jordan Williams is one of the Loud Applause Rising Stars and director Cerith Owens says, "Jordan is musically a very talented young man with great potential. He is in constant demand as a soloist for all types of events."
Jordan said: "Loud Applause Rising Stars has given me many great platforms. Loud Applause promotes local up and coming young aspiring musicians in some of the best concerts in the area. My confidence grows with every concert whether in respect of performing or socializing. These are important skills – the ability to communicate effectively and confidently which is extremely important these days."
Jordan's next big concert is in Cor Curiad’s 20th Anniversary Concert with Paul Potts.
Jordan added: "I was very excited to be asked to perform in Cor Curiad’s Anniversary Concert. I know their musical director Alex Esney well and also a few members of the choir. It is indeed a great honour to share the stage with this well known and hard working choir, the internationally famous Paul Potts along with Burry Port Brass Band and compere Kevin John – all great artistes and of course all in support of the charity Calon Plus. What a wonderful opportunity ! I am told tickets are selling fast!"

Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell the guest speaker at Llanelli Rotary Club

Former Gower MP Gareth Wardell was the guest speaker at the weekly meeting of Llanelli Rotary Club held at the Stradey Park Hotel. Mr Wardell gave an illuminating address, weaving comparisons between his job as a politician and his late father's job as a Tumble barber. It was an amusing, highly-entertaining and thought-provoking address. Mr Wardell, now 69, won the Gower constituency seat in a Parliamentary by-election in 1982. The Labour MP held the seat until his retirement in 1997. He now works as a public affairs consultant in Wales. Mr Wardell's Parliamentary term was largely in opposition to Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Government. But his did make a significant contribution by being the youngest MP to chair the Welsh Affairs Select Committee. Mr Wardell recognised that in the 'fame stakes' he may have played second fiddle to his father, Jack, who was one of the UK's oldest barbers and who cut and styled hair for almost 80 years. Jac

Ammanford-based Lauryn Davey is making a major mark in the world of Welsh athletics. At just 16, she is the best all-round athlete of her age in Wales. She's chalking up Welsh championship victories and has been honoured by her club, the Carmarthen Harriers. Lauryn's been earmarked as a future international star, but knows the road to the big championships is difficult, demanding and expensive.
