SUMMARY:Jake Blount and Nic Gareiss in Concert
DESCRIPTION:The Jake Blount and Nic Gareiss concert on Saturday\, April 2\, 2022 at 7:00 pm\, is hosted in the Moore Auditorium on the campus of Mars Hill University. \nJake Blount is an award-winning banjoist\, fiddler\, singer and ethnomusicologist. He is the 2020 recipient of the Steve Martin Banjo Prize\, and a two-time winner and many-time finalist at Clifftop. Blount specializes in the music of Black communities in the southeastern United States\, and in the regional style of the Finger Lakes\, and foregrounds the experiences of queer people and people of color in his work. His first full-length solo album\, Spider Tales (Free Dirt Records & Service Co.) debuted at #2 on the Billboard Bluegrass Chart\, received positive coverage from NPR\, Rolling Stone\, and Billboard among others\, and earned five out of five stars as The Guardian’s Folk Album of the Month. \nOne of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch\,” Nic Gareiss is swiftly becoming recognized as a singular voice in traditional dance. Informed by 25 years of ethnographic study and performance of many world dance practices\, Gareiss’ work draws from percussive dance traditions to weave together a technique facilitating his love of improvisation and traditional clog and step dance footwork vocabulary. He has concertized in sixteen countries with many of the luminaries of traditional music\, including Alasdair Fraser\, Bruce Molsky\, and the Chieftains. He has performed at London’s Barbican Centre\, the Irish National Concert Hall\, the Munich Philharmonic\, and the Kennedy Center. \nThis event is a co-production of MHU’s Ramsey Center for Appalachian Studies and MHU’s Center for Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion\, and is supported by a generous grant from the Madison County Tourism Development Authority.

SUMMARY:Appalachian Music\, Dance & Storytelling Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Artist-in-Residence\, Becky Hill hosts Master West Virginia Square Dance Caller\, Flatfooter & Musician\, Mack Samples for a weekend of fun\, fast friends\, cool tunes\, and hot dances. A concert\, community dance\, and a day-long series of workshops welcome beginners\, budding pickers\, and avid dancers. If you’ve ever been to Helvetia Hoot or Dare to Be Square\, this will be a similar experience. This weekend offers a window into traditional mountain square dances\, Appalachian storytelling\, old-time fiddle tunes\, flatfooting\, folklore\, and more. \n\n9:30–10:30 a.m. All-level Traditional Mountain Square Dance with Q&A\nLet’s get the day started right. Before coffee\, there was square dancing. Come solo or with a partner and we’ll all ease into the day with some basic warmup dances.\n11:00–12:00 p.m. Beginner/Intermediate Flatfoot Clogging with Old Time Slow Jam\nWe’ll keep our blood moving as Becky Hill teaches the room. If you already flatfoot\, perhaps you’d like to learn a step or two like Mack or Lou? If you’ve never danced a beat in your life\, we’ll get you going too. Also look out for a mini demonstration of steps from dancers like Thomas Maupin\, Aurthur Grimes\, and Robert Dotson.\n12:00–1:30 p.m.  LUNCH\n***Bring a lunch and feel free to grab a picnic table in the garden or anywhere on campus.\n1:30–2:30 p.m.  Storytelling in Appalachia- Reflections of West Virginia In Poetry and Prose\nWhile we digest our lunch\, Mack will step into his author/storyteller shoes. We’ll take a ride through central WV as he doodlebugs his way through the afternoon.\n3:00–4:00 p.m. Glenville\, WV Style Square Dance Figures\, Calls\, & History\nThe distinct visiting couple Glenville Style came together over the last century\, catered to keeping dancers in time with the calls and the rip-roaring banjo fiddle bands. It is said that the playful improvisation of figures was to make sure dancers didn’t get ahead by predicting a repetitive choreography. What we’re left with is an incredibly fun style of set dancing which weaves together various traditional figures in each dance.\n4:45-5:45 p.m. Presentation on Old Time Music & Dance (open to the public at no charge)\nMack was an educator\, so we can’t let him leave without his storied presentation of the roots or old-time music and dance. He’s given this presentation at Warren Wilson College\, Augusta Heritage Center at Davis & Elkins College among others.\n7:00–10:00 p.m. Stay a while longer and enjoy the Saturday COMMUNITY DANCE featuring the House Band w/ caller Mack Samples. (open to the public)\n\nCheck out the Folk School’s Blog for more Appalachian Music & Dance Weekend Events.\nFor folks who wish to stay the weekend call 828-837-2775 for information regarding the Folk School camp ground reservations and policies. \nAbout Becky Hill:\nBecky Hill is a percussive dancer\, choreographer\, educator\, and square dance caller. She is honored to be the current Artist-in-Residence at the Folk School and is excited to introduce you to Mack Samples one of her all-time favorite people and dance callers. As an avid organizer and teacher\, Becky’s work is deeply rooted in the intersections of dance\, music\, pepperoni rolls\, and community. \nAbout Mack Samples:\nMack Samples was born and raised in Corton\, West Virginia\, a rural community near the Kanawha/Clay County lines. Since his retirement in 1999 Mack has enjoyed some success as a writer\, authoring nine books. Mack has always been involved in traditional music. His band\, The Samples Brothers\, has been active since 1978 and still performs on the festival circuit. He is a well-known traditional square dance caller. In 2003 Mack was presented with the Vandalia Award\, the highest award for the preservation of traditional life in the Mountain State.

Sensitive and rich harmonies weave through the tapestry of original compositions and carefully curated covers that celebrate the roots of American southern music. The crew enjoy performing as a full groove-infused band\, while staying true to the core artistry that is the songwriting trio. \nFor over two decades The Walker Family Band has delighted audiences throughout the Southeast with a distinctive take on traditional styles\, performing Irish dance music and American Old Time music with a forward reaching attitude.

On stage The Walker Family Band creates a confluence of sound with an end game plan\, a fresh connection with each audience. \nThe J Creek Cloggers are not just performers; they are educators and storytellers. They engage with their audience\, offering insights into the history and techniques of different dance styles\, and often invite spectators to join in their routines. This interactive approach clearly shows the art of clogging and other dance forms\, making them accessible and enjoyable for people of all ages.
