Quality music on violin and piano by Eileen Kalfass and Jane Knoeck, and if you haven’t yet danced to the calling of the young and marvelously energetic Dan Blim, you’re in for a treat!
Caller
Dan Blim
Dan is a relatively young caller (as well as a superb dancer) with a Ph.D. in Musicology and over a decade of calling experience, including being staff caller at the CDSS dance week at Camp Cavell in 2017 and several appearances in Rochester in the 2017 – 2018 time period. He’s known for his efficient teaching, enthusiasm, and broad repertoire.
Band
Sister Haggis
Eileen Nicholson Kalfass - fiddle, Jane Knoeck - piano, accordion
Western NY duo Eileen and Jane, are familiar to Rochesterians but also well known traveling musicians who play all over the country. Here they get together as good friends to play the tunes they love and give us a great time. We’ve known Eileen, daughter of long-time Syracuse caller Bob Nicholson, since she was a lass. Now playing nationally as a member of the bands Seaglass and Continental Drift, we always enjoy her lilting fiddle style. Jane is a founding member of The Groovemongers, and Montage, as well as a number of great combinations including Riverbend and New Brew.
