Great music tonight with New Brew:  Jane Knoeck on keyboard and accordion, Eileen Kalfass on fiddle, and Tom Santarsiero on mandolin.  A favorite caller from Ithaca, Nancy Spero, brings her great, good humor and a large collection of fun dances.

Caller

Nancy Spero

Ithaca caller Nancy Spero is especially welcome in Rochester.  In addition to being a fine contra dance caller, Nancy is particularly interested in the music and moves of traditional, old-time square dancing and she calls for square dances held several times a year in the greater Ithaca area.  On our stage, she is always smiling and moving to the music of the band.
