   Will Woodson (flute, uilleann pipes) and Cait Finley (fiddle) play sparky and driving traditional Irish music that’s grounded in the textures and rhythms of the rich Irish-American soundscape of the 1920s and 30s. With roots in the living Irish musical cultures of Boston, New York City, and Philadelphia, and a tremendous admiration for the first generation of recorded Irish musicians, the duo conjures up the sounds of the dance halls, vaudeville theaters, and house sessions central to Irish-American music from the first half of the twentieth century. In 2019, the two recorded their debut album, “The Glory Reel” alongside box player and piano accompanist Chris “Junior” Stevens, which Dan Neely of the Irish Echo called “a fabulous album from three of Irish America’s finest.” During the pandemic years, the two made “The Phonograph Project”, a Patreon-supported series examining 78 recordings of traditional Irish music made in New York City in the 1920s and 30s. More recently, they’ve made musical appearances at the St. Louis Tionól, the Patrick J. Touhey Memorial Weekend in Boston and the Ward Archives “Archiving Irish America” conference in Milwaukee. Cait and Will live in Portland, Maine.

On December 17 at Next Generation Theatre we will feature a trio consisting of Garrett Cameron vibraphonist and mandolinist with Lissa Schneckenburger (fiddle and vocals) and Nic Garreis (step dancing).Lissa’s (she/her) recent burst of writing—born during the pandemic and captured on her 2023 album Falling Forward—highlights her signature blend of driving New England fiddle tunes and reflective, original compositions.

One of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch,” Nic Gareiss (he/they) is swiftly becoming recognized for his singular voice in the realm of dance, music, and the traditional arts. Informed by 25 years of ethnographic study and performance, Gareiss’ work draws from many percussive dance practices to weave together a technique facilitating his love of improvisation; clog, flatfoot, and step dance vocabulary; and musical collaboration.

Garrett (he/him) brings his love of pulse, smushed tonalities, and the intersection of Scottish/Cape Breton traditions with Minimalism and free improv, performing on mandolin, vibraphone, and whatever else the moment calls for.

Together, they craft concerts full of rhythm, melody, improvisation, and joyful spontaneity— music that feels grounded, adventurous, and always alive in the moment.
