We are excited to have Wild Asparagus as one of our guest bands this year. Since 1984, Wild Asparagus has been highly successful at numerous major festivals and dance events throughout the United States, Canada, and Alaska. As a special treat, they will have Mark Hellenberg sitting in with them. Just try to sit still when he's playing percussion.
Our other guest band is Great Bear Trio. Brothers Andrew and Noah VanNordstrand have mastered the title of "multi-instrumentalists" by being proficient at more than twenty different string and percussion instruments between them. The brothers and mother Kim are Great Bear Trio which has become one of the hottest contra dance bands on the circuit.
Our callers this year are George Marshall a national favorite from Massachusetts and Susan Petrick a west coast favorite from Reno, NV.
