If you contra dance, you probably know The Latter Day Lizards. Memphis Contra Dancers are
thrilled to bring them back for another Memfest dance weekend.
The Lizards play an enormous and eclectic repertoire of
dance music, but it's never quite the same tune twice. Irish and Scottish
traditional jigs and reels, Balkan, blues and swing tunes, rock and roll, and
jazz influences combine to make a dance experience like no other.
The Memfest lineup includes Kate Barnes on piano, guitar and
flute, Bill Tomczak on clarinet, sax and drum, Dave Langford on fiddle and guitar,
and Stuart Kenney on bass and banjo.
