    details: "Join us for our contra dance with ECDB (English Contra Dance Band) with calling from Rob Humphrey and Charlie Turner.\n\nNo bio added\n\nRob Humphrey has been attending folk dance events his whole life, but only discovered Contra dances in 2015 when one happened to follow a handstand class he was attending.  He was hooked pretty much immediately, and started calling shortly afterwards.  Based in Cambridge, Rob enjoys contra dances with pleasing patterns and unusual geometry that flow and provide opportunities for embellishments.\n\nCharlie Turner has been dancing and teaching for as long as she can remember, but a move to San Francisco transformed her contra dancing and started her calling. Now based in Cambridge, UK, she brings the best of the West Coast to contra crowds, with clear, friendly teaching and satisfying dance selections. She emphasises connection, fun, flow and inclusivity in dance."

    details: "Join us for our contra dance with Ian and Charley Roberts with calling from Louise Siddons.\n\nProbably better known to regular contra dancers as one half of long-serving contra dance band Vertical Expression, Ian and Charley Roberts will be heading down from the Far North (well, Sheffield) armed with several melodeons, a piano, one or two guitars and a pair of tap shoes to provide some irresistibly danceable tuneage to accompany the dances.\n\nLouise Siddons was born in the UK but moved to the United States as a child, where she grew up  surrounded by folk music and song. Now back in the UK permanently, she is known on both sides of  the Atlantic as a contra, English country dance, and ceilidh caller. Louise believes that we  should invest in the evolution and sustainability of folk traditions and their ongoing relevance  to contemporary culture. As a caller and dance teacher, she strives to create a fun and welcoming  atmosphere with her low-key and light-hearted stage presence. She received the 2016 Mary  Judson/Brad Foster Award for English Dance Teachers from the Country Dance and Song Society  (CDSS), and has been a committee member for the Friends of English Dance (UK) since 2018. In 2021,  she received a diversity grant from the English Folk Dance and Song Society (EFDSS) in support of  her gender-free teaching and calling. In 2022, CDSS published her booklet on gender-free,  positional calling, “Dancing the Whole Dance: Positional Calling for Contra.” This winter, she is  starting Winchester's first-ever queer ceilidh series, WinQeilidh."

He was hooked pretty much immediately, and started calling shortly afterwards.  Based in Cambridge, Rob enjoys contra dances with pleasing patterns and unusual geometry that flow and provide opportunities for embellishments."

    details: "Join us for our contra dance with Ian and Charley Roberts with calling from Malcolm Jowett.\n\nProbably better known to regular contra dancers as one half of long-serving contra dance band Vertical Expression, Ian and Charley Roberts will be heading down from the Far North (well, Sheffield) armed with several melodeons, a piano, one or two guitars and a pair of tap shoes to provide some irresistibly danceable tuneage to accompany the dances.\n\nAfter being dragged along to a ceilidh at the age of 17, Malcolm realised that dancing had to be a part of his life. He started calling while a student at the University of Nottingham. He went to his first real contra dance in 2009 at Austin, Texas, and loved it. The energy and flow of contra dance makes it a firm favourite when he calls at dance clubs around the East Midlands. He has a friendly, inclusive style which is enjoyed by beginners and experienced dancers alike."

Strong believers in letting the music tradition live and breathe through sensitive interpretation, Vicki and Jonny allow the melody to sing without any constraints. Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer have developed an enviable reputation for their ability to reimagine folk and folk dance music; creating sounds that are simultaneously new and progressive, and yet entirely sympathetic to the tradition.  They have become deeply involved in folk dance over the last ten years; contra, ceilidh and ’social dance’ both as the duo and as Purcell’s Polyphonic Party.  They often insert performance elements into their dance music.  You are very likely to find yourself dancing to a song – and we dare you not to sing the chorus as you go.\n\nRachel Shapiro Wallace is a dance caller who strives to communicate connection, wonder, and joy through dancing.\n\nHaving stumbled upon contra dancing in Boston, Rachel eventually realized her passion for calling after moving to Chicago. She has called dances throughout America, the UK, and Paris. Since moving to her current home in Edinburgh, Rachel has helped organize Scotland's only contra dance series.\n\nRachel's high-energy approach involves clear, concise walk-throughs, flexibility in teaching and programming, and working with the band to create that groove that dancers love."

Hailing from Honolulu and now living in California, she cut her folk teeth in the Boston area, attending Berklee College of Music and spending years exploring the thriving New England folk scene and beyond. She has performed at many folk music and dance festivals, camps, and events, including at Ashokan Center's Northern Week, Halsway Manor in England, and Pinewoods Dance and Music Camp. Audrey’s fiddle playing is rhythmically lively and spontaneous; she's guaranteed to get you up and dancing.\n\nAlan Brunier and Adam Rich-Griffin (both of Contrasaurus and The Night Before, Adam also of Chaotic Good) are well-known faces on the UK contra dance circuit and specialise in playing contra dance tunes that are well matched to dances. They started making music together over a decade ago after meeting at Warwick Folk Society and, some might say remarkably, remain good friends and musical-partners-in-crime. In their spare time they are, respectively, involved with organising contra dance events at Chippenham Folk Festival and Sidmouth Folk Festival.\n\nDaisy calls for contra, ceilidh and English dances, and particularly enjoys making historical dances lively and accessible for new and more experienced dancers.  She also uses her experience as a drama lecturer, theatre practitioner and storyteller to give dances momentum, narrative and energy. \n\n[https://daisyblack.uk/](https://daisyblack.uk/)"

    details: "Join us for our contra dance with Box of Frogs with calling from Lauren Catlin and Sally Vernon.\n\nTwo of the most exciting players on the Contra dance scene. With creative, colourful accordion player Ali Messer (Blue Mountain, Alterations, Fat Harry, Fiddle Chicks) and high energy fiddling from Linda Game (ECDB, Token Women) expect an evening of fabulous dance music. Box the gnat and swat the flea, but can you spot the frog?\n\nLauren Catlin was initially ‘persuaded’ into having a go at calling by Sally. Several years, a couple of degrees and a folk festival later, she calls regularly for Nottingham Folk Dance Group, as well as making occasional appearances at other events, both in person and online. She is looking forward to working together with Sally to create a memorable evening of contra dance.\n\nSally Vernon has been calling for a wide variety of folk styles since her time as a student at Cambridge (longer ago than she likes to admit!) She aims to bring her favourite parts of contra to the evening - the fun of connecting with many people on the dance floor, the joy of moving in time to music, and the surprise of discovering deep patterns from simple moves. Keen to share her love of contra with as many people as possible, she strives to make a welcoming friendly environment that is comfortable for new people - while also enjoying finding things that are new to challenge comfortable people!"

She aims to bring her favourite parts of contra to the evening - the fun of connecting with many people on the dance floor, the joy of moving in time to music, and the surprise of discovering deep patterns from simple moves. Keen to share her love of contra with as many people as possible, she strives to make a welcoming friendly environment that is comfortable for new people - while also enjoying finding things that are new to challenge comfortable people!"

They enjoy playing fresh and exciting tunes for contra dances, workshops, folk clubs and festivals throughout England. Not technically dinosaurs.\n\nRob Humphrey has been attending folk dance events his whole life, but only discovered Contra dances in 2015 when one happened to follow a handstand class he was attending.  He was hooked pretty much immediately, and started calling shortly afterwards.  Based in Cambridge, Rob enjoys contra dances with pleasing patterns and unusual geometry that flow and provide opportunities for embellishments."

    details: "Join us for our contra dance with Box of Frogs with calling from Louise Siddons.\r\n\r\nTwo of the most exciting players on the Contra dance scene. With creative, colourful accordion player Ali Messer (Blue Mountain, Alterations, Fat Harry, Fiddle Chicks) and high energy fiddling from Linda Game (ECDB, Token Women) expect an evening of fabulous dance music. Box the gnat and swat the flea, but can you spot the frog?\r\n\r\nLouise Siddons was born in the UK but moved to the United States as a child, where she grew up  surrounded by folk music and song. Now back in the UK permanently, she is known on both sides of  the Atlantic as a contra, English country dance, and ceilidh caller. Louise believes that we  should invest in the evolution and sustainability of folk traditions and their ongoing relevance  to contemporary culture. As a caller and dance teacher, she strives to create a fun and welcoming  atmosphere with her low-key and light-hearted stage presence. She received the 2016 Mary  Judson/Brad Foster Award for English Dance Teachers from the Country Dance and Song Society  (CDSS), and has been a committee member for the Friends of English Dance (UK) since 2018. In 2021,  she received a diversity grant from the English Folk Dance and Song Society (EFDSS) in support of  her gender-free teaching and calling. In 2022, CDSS published her booklet on gender-free,  positional calling, “Dancing the Whole Dance: Positional Calling for Contra.” This winter, she is  starting Winchester's first-ever queer ceilidh series, WinQeilidh."

    details: "Join us for our contra dance with Bearded Dragons with calling from Sarah Trop.\n\nFrom fire and darkness rise the mighty Bearded Dragons. Blending traditional and electronic styles, they are pioneers of Techno Contra, Techno Playford, and Electro Folk in general, at the very cutting edge of folk dance music. They are fiddle playing behemoth Benjamin Rowe (also found rampaging in Contrasaurus); and bellows, keys and synths monster Vic Smith (known also in Double Dichotomy and Ceilidh Experiment). Using both traditional instruments and sounds, with live hardware synthesisers, Bearded Dragons weave a musical experience that is entirely unique.\n\nSarah Trop is a lifelong contra dancer and energetic caller based in San Francisco. She is a strong proponent of a safe and inclusive dance floor, and her steady calling will guide everyone through her varied programs with ease."
