CAJUN DANCE WOODY SLOOP FUNDRAISER with Krewe de la Rue
The Beacon Sloop Club will be holding a Cajun dance to raise funds for the restoration of the ferry sloop Woody Guthrie on Saturday, May 31, from 6-10:00pm at St. Luke's Parish House,850 Wolcott Ave, Beacon, NY, featuring Krewe de la Rue. This popular local Cajun band, born out of the Hudson Valley fiddle and dance community, 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 protégé Steve Riley 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 each have years of experience in roots music including both Cajun and Zydeco genres. Together as a group 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.
Come hungry have dinner. Dinner and a drink of choice $10.
Gumbo, Jambalaya and other foods and refreshments available.
