Band: Scalar Scalawags Caller: David Ernst (Lexington, KY) The Scalar Scalawags of Ann Arbor have been described as “a touch of classical meets traditional, Celtic, Eastern European, rock, and pub.” The Scalawags deliver eclectic blends of music using a wide variety of inspirations to create a unique experience. Members include Dave Sebolt (whistles, bamboo saxophones, bodhran, percussion), Mark Hillegonds (hammered dulcimer, percussion, mandolin), Bill Belote (double bass) and Alex Belhaj (guitar). A Flourishes Workshop precedes the dance! It's the perfect chance to brush up on your skills and learn a new trick or two just in time for Pigtown. The workshop runs from 4 - 5:30 pm, then we break for dinner (on your own, no pot luck). An open waltz will be held from 7 - 7:30 pm. The cost is $3, or $1 for Students & Youth. |
