Swingin’ Tern Contra Dances
September 2, 2023 @ 7:30 pm - 10:30 pm
$5 – $15Contra dancing with caller Dylan Simpson and live music by the Melody Allegra Band.
While Dylan Simpson started dancing in his native Pacific Northwest, he launched his calling career here in New Jersey. On stage, his easy manner and positive energy draw dancers in and keep them coming back. As Dylan says, “remember, if we’re havin’ fun, we’re doin’ it right”!
Award-winning fiddler, Melody Allegra Berger has been raising a ruckus in NYC for nearly two decades and has toured nationally and abroad. You can see her on SNL(S44E19), and hear her on House of Cards (S2E05), Trixie Mattel’s Two Birds, and Gangstagrass: American Music. She loves playing dances! Expect fiery fiddle and soulful vocals. She’ll be joined by the hot pickin’ of Terry McGill on banjo, and the sultry sounds of Dave Lockert on bass.
