The Electrodes:
“The Electrodes, who hail from Seattle, played together for the first time in Yakima in 2011. Now they are a common sight at dances throughout the Northwest. Featuring Joe Bowbeer (5-string electric violin), Marcy Kubbs (piano) & Joe Micheals (guitar), they play a combination of Irish, Appalachian, and original tunes.”

Russell Owen:
“I enjoy contra, English country, Scandinavian and folk dancing and have been calling contra and english for many years. I feel my role as a caller is to pick fun, interesting dances, teach them efficiently, then get out of the way in order to maximize connection between the dancers and musicians.”
