Square dance music from Appalachia

Ozark fiddling
-
Pennsylvania old time fiddling
-
Scottish fiddling from Nova Scotia
-
French Canadian fiddling from Quebec and New Brunswick
-
Cajun fiddling

Irish music as played in the urban centers of America

Kevin Carr has played fiddle for more than forty years, following the trail of traditional fiddle music across the US and to Ireland, Canada, Spain and Mexico. He loves to talk about the lore of the fiddle and was the recipient of an NEA grant to study Irish fiddling. As a member of the contradance band, The Hillbillies from Mars, he has played at hundreds of dances and dozens of dance camps across the country. Over the last three decades he has taught at many fiddle festivals in the US and abroad and has a deep grasp of a number of fiddle traditions.

The Bay Area's own Wake the Dead explode the barriers between Celtic tradition and Summer of Love rock- creating something uniquely joyful. This acoustic sextet reimagines the classic songs of the Grateful Dead and more for a rollicking sonic excursion that has delighted audiences for over 18 years.
Wake the Dead bands together six of the best-known and most respected players in the west. Their music is a romp that flows seamlessly from rock grooves to hot Irish reels, and from haunting airs to achingly beautiful melodies familiar to Deadheads everywhere. Songs converted to waltz time, bracketed by an ancient harp tune and infused with a poignant Celtic longing or thundering out of mandolin tidal wave.
The eerie lilt of the uilleann pipes, groove jams to keep the tie-dye swirling and vocal harmonies float like clouds. The music takes off, and the band follows, grinning all the way. These aren’t worlds colliding-they’re worlds meshing, coalescing creating a whole new world of possibility, and true to the spirits of the Grateful Dead and the eternally hopeful Celts.
