Please join us at the beautiful Lewis Ginter Recreation Association for the 2026 Springforth Ball, a weekend of dance, music, food, and camaraderie. we are excited to announce that Wild Asparagus and George Marshall will be playing for Springforth Ball 2026, our annual contra dance weekend!
Wild Asparagus website:“The heartbeat of Wild Asparagus is Ann Percival on piano, guitar, and vocals. Ann’s playing is highly inventive while still maintaining an irresistible rhythm. David Cantieni, a wood-wind wizard, pours forth lively melodies and liquid harmonies on his flutes, tin-whistle, oboe, saxophone and bombard. Becky Tracy’s masterful fiddling is that rare combination of energy and beauty. George Marshall is an accomplished English concertina player and also provides driving rhythms on bodhran and bones. [Mark Murphy joins them on bass for Springforth 2026] George also provides excellent instruction and calling for New England style contras.”
So, mark your calendars for Springforth Ball April 10-12, 2026, and watch for registration to open in January!
