Countercurrent <\/b>is a contra band from Western Washington made up of two band members: Alex Sturbaum and Brian Lindsey who’ve both been immersed in music most their lives. Their energetic music will have your feet flying in moments. This winter the two will be on tour in the Bay Area and launching a Kickstarter to fund an awesome album.<\/span><\/div>\n

Susan Michaels<\/b> has been calling squares, contras, and family dances for more then 30 years, building community, facilitating joy, and just plain having fun.  Susan believes it is in calling in life to teach people how to hold hands in a circle and move to music.  She loves all kinds of choreography\u2026 but specializes in dance with drive and flow that hold on to the roots of barn dancing but take off in new directions.  Susan brings  her special brand of dry quirky humor with her to every dance event and has a unique gift for making newcomers, 2 left-footers, and shy persons blossom through dance.<\/span><\/div>\n
