Learn a tune from Québec, a tune from Acadie, and you can even learn how to do "les pieds" (the seated French-Canadian foot percussion that a lot of contra dance musicians have adopted).
This month's Contra Tunes session (on Sunday, April 13th) has a special guest teacher!
Seattle Acadian fiddler Devon Léger will be teaching some of the super fun, syncopated French-Canadian fiddle tunes that have been lighting up contra dance floors all over the place!
