THIS YEARS MUSICAL LINEUP
Lauded as "sparkling" and "exhilarating", Notorious musicians Eden MacAdam-Somer and Larry Unger are now scheduled to appear at LDDA 2009. If you haven't heard them yet, it won't take you four beats to realize that this isn't just any ordinary folk band. Sweet vocals and virtuosic fiddling coupled with driving rhythm and snappy guitar solos make for a thrilling musical experience in genres that span many continents. Declared "guitar genius" by Sing Out Magazine, Unger combines talent with exciting and versatile young violinist Eden MacAdam-Somer whose classical and jazz background merges with Larry's driving style to push the envelope towards swing, blues and Gypsy modes. Come see how many ways they can "metamorphosize 64 beats!"

Rachel Aucoin (Piano)
Stuart Kenney (Upright Bass and Banjo)
Eric Favreau(Fiddle)
Tidal Wave, or Raz-de-Marée with its cross-border personnel from Quebec and New England, invites cultures to meet and share the love of traditional music and dance. Since 2003, Tidal Wave has evolved as a dance band, carrying through time the most relevant aspect of Quebec traditional, instrumental music: playing for live dancing. In that sense they are not reflecting the past but writing the book of a strong, living current. Their liveliness and outgoing personalities have led them to teach workshops and school programs, as well as perform concerts on the folk music planet and wherever Franco-Americans need to connect with their roots.
