LIVE MUSIC!

The Racket Factory

The Racket Factory is Hank Washburn, Eric Johnson, Margaret Cox, Mark Rains, and Cynthia Phinney, and together they have over a century of combined experience producing the finest reels, jigs, waltzes, hambos and polkas for the people of Central Maine. They perform traditional music for contra dances, weddings, and festivals. Their acoustical instruments are fiddles, guitar, banjo, bass, and a five-string racket. They write their own music and perform traditional favorites. They call contra-dances and are very beginner friendly, a skill suitable to the family atmosphere at the Maine Artisan Bread Fair.

The North Star Sisters

The North Star Sisters call themselves a “revisionary” fiddle band. They play traditional fiddle tunes and old-time dance music, specializing in New England style jigs and reels. Though they are dedicated to preserving the flavor of old-time music, they add their personal interpretations of the music, thus “revisionary”. They specialize in engaging people in the dancing that can accompany their contra dances, foxtrost, waltzes, schottishes, and polkas.
