Once again this most popular Cajun band will perform for the Beacon Sloop Club Woody Guthrie Sloop Restoration project. Krewe de la Rue is a Cajun band born out of the Hudson Valley fiddle and dance community. The Krewe traces its roots back to the fiddle and dance camp at Ashokan where in the late 1980's the great fiddler and 'Cajun Ambassador' Dewey Balfa along with his young protege Steve Riley first brought Cajun music to the Hudson Valley. Roger Weiss on fiddle, Buffy Lewis on guitar, Laren Droll on accordion, Maggie McManus on tee-fer, Gary Graeff on bass, and June Drucker on drums have years of experience in roots music including both Cajun and Zydeco genres. Together as a group for the first time, they create the special mix that is Krewe de la Rue. Even if you have never danced, you will want to once you hear this energized and engaging band. We'll have a dance lesson with Buffy Lewis in basics of two-step and waltz as part of the program from 6-7:15pm. Lessons in basics of two-step and waltz. Large dance space with wooden floor. Food and refreshments available for purchase at dance.
