STAFF

Elixir is an amazing five-piece band that blends driving fiddle and guitar with the rich texture and the rhythmic excitement of a full horn section, deftly weaving brassy riffs and daring solos in and out of traditional Irish, French Canadian, and New England tunes.

Crowfoot is a trio of acoustic musicians, from England, Canada, and the US, who love to create new music inspired by their collective cultural roots. Their acoustic palette is wide rich vocal harmonies interwoven with flute, fiddle, guitar, accordion, cello, mandolin, cittern, and piano.

Nils Fredland has been making music, leading dances, and bringing people together for twenty years as a teacher, singer, trombonist; contra, square, and community dance caller; and story teller. He shares his infectious energy, love of the dance and humor with dancers from coast to coast and beyond.
Mary Wesley is a dance leader, caller, and organizer for contras, squares, Morris, and community dances. A native of Vermont, she travels throughout the country to follow and share her love of dance.
