calls the dances
to music by Sandy Bradley and Kevin Carr
to music by Sandy Bradley and Kevin Carr
Her succinct teaching and quick wit delight dancers near and far, young and old, brand new and experienced. Equally comfortable with contra dances, English Country dances, and squares, she’ll keep your toes tapping and your mouth grinning long after the band goes home.
Kevin Carr is from Grants Pass and has been a mainstay of fiddle music for national and international audiences for many years. He plays dance music of many different idioms. He’s paired here with Sandy Bradley on guitar. She’s a Seattle area pillar of old time music and dance, and her experience with Kevin spans many years.
There is joy in the clarity of their musical vision, and it propels the dance floor.
Join us at Black Diamond Grange, 1942 Black Diamond Rd., Port Angeles
