Domino is a high energy band from Montreal, Quebec. Its contagious vitality and authentic spontaneity are displayed throughout a vast repertoire of traditional and original tunes. They come highly recommended by one of our members who recently danced to them in Greenfield MA, where they wore out the crowd!
Currently residing in Nashville, TN, Susan Kevra began calling in New England, appearing in local villages, major festivals, and dance camps from coast to coast. She spent 2000-2001 in France, traveling throughout Western Europe teaching contras, squares and English Country Dancing. Dancers on both sides of the Atlantic appreciate her clear teaching and diverse repertoire: singing squares, Western patter calls, contras and English Country dances presented with charm, wit and respect for the traditions.
