The caller is Jeremy Child ( <http://barndancecaller.net/index.html>
http://barndancecaller.net/index.html), an experienced contra caller who has
recently returned from a calling tour of South Eastern US. You may have seen
him and his rather bright orange shirt calling at Willand, Sidford and
Bridport.
We will be using recorded music, so you can dance along to your favourite
English bands such as Vertical Expression, English Contra Dance Band, Arden
Folk, Blowzabella, Fiddlin' Around and The Night Before, as well as some of
the top American Contra Bands such as Yankee Ingenuity, Wild Asparagus,
Contraforce and Perpetual e-Motion.
There will be a short interval for tea / coffee at around 9:15. Soft
drinks, tea, coffee and biscuits will be available f.o.c. but there is no
bar.
