A weekend of old-time US square dancing, flatfooting, music, history and more, with Phil Jamison – dance caller, old-time musician, flatfoot dancer, author, scholar of traditional Appalachian dance and music (USA), with great Tasmanian live old-time musicians
Phil Jamison is nationally (US) and internationally known as a dance caller, old-time musician, and flatfoot dancer and has called dances, performed, and taught at music festivals and dance events throughout the U.S. and overseas since the early 1970s.
Join Phil for a weekend of dancing, music and history including a presentation all about Appalachian music and dancing, a live concert, workshops in flatfooting and southern square dancing, a dance callers’ workshop, several square dances, an old-time music workshop and an old-time session.
Phil’s dances are always great fun, accessible and family friendly. Experiencing a Southern US dance and music aficionado like this really is an immensely special opportunity that doesn’t come round often so don’t miss it!
Joining Phil are experienced local dance callers Sarah “Twinkletoes” Lewis and David “Oddsocks” Wanless, and local old-time musicians Ross Smithard and Up Jumped Trouble and the Rusticators.
Most events are at St James Hall, Elizabeth St, Hobart, Tasmania but see the full program online.
