Mar. 10, 2018 -- Birl returns!

Two months ago we danced to the lively music of Birl, made up of Garrett Cameron, Tad Dreis, and Samuel Foucher. These young multi-instrumentalists play as regulars at the legendary Monday night dances in Nelson, NH. As in January they will be joined by fiddler Perin Ellsworth-Heller. We welcome them back for another night of high-energy Scottish-flavored dance tunes. Learn more about this hot up-and-coming trio at http://www.birlmusic.com.

Birl -- Here's how we sound!

Caller Nils Fredland is sought after as a prime mover for contra dances all over New England and internationally. If that's not enough, he's a classically trained trombonist who plays fiddle tunes and the Associate Artistic Director for Revels North.
