Description
We’re hosting a very special contra dance on Saturday, August 9 from 6:00-9:00 pm. Owen Kennedy and Benjamin Foss will give a combined concert and contra dance at Central Hall Commons, 152 East Main Street, Dover-Foxcroft. This event is sponsored by the Maine Highlands Council for the Arts.
Owen and Ben will play a selection of traditional New England favorites: energetic contradance tunes on guitar and fiddle, close harmony twin fiddling, and a classic waltz or two. They will also share tunes from Scotland and Scandinavia, a couple of originals, and a song or two. This young duo has been entertaining the Maine Fiddle Camp crowd for years, bringing fresh energy and fun arrangements sure to charm an audience of all ages.
