Contra Dance featuring Glen, Bethany & Dave, with Dugan Murphy!

September 20, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Portland Intown Contra Dance is up to growing a lively community through weekly zesty, joyful, intergenerational contra dancing to live music. They insist no partner and no experience is needed to have a delightful and connected dance. Dugan Murphy will teach each of the evening’s dances; he’s known for emanating joy and for teaching with the artful precision of clockwork. He’s joined by a trio comprised of Bethany Waickman on guitar, Dave Langford on fiddle, and Glen Loper on mandolin and tenor banjo. All three musicians are mainstays on the national contra dance circuit, combining in countless foot-stomping, electric collaborations inspired by traditional music from Ireland, England, the Balkans, and New England.
