Details

Bob Nicholson is one of our favorite callers from Syracuse.  He’s well known for his genial manner, gentle teaching, and impressive memory for dances.  His daughter, Eileen Kalfass, has been playing fiddle for years and now travels all over with various bands.  Tonight she plays with her long-time piano playing friend John Wobus.  Cool fact:  John Wobus also has a fiddle-playing daughter!
