Pipedance
Today’s featured performer is Pipedance
The 2020 Samhain Celtic New Year Festival is excited to welcome Pipedance.
Pipedance was formed out of a true love for Irish music and dance. The Lincoln City, OR-based husband and wife team of Gary Burman and Nora Sherwood began performing together in 2001. The duo’s sound is complemented by Nora’s percussive sean-nós step dancing – this duo is not only fun to listen to, they are fun to watch.
Gary Burman is a lifelong musician who plays uilleann pipes, guitar, flute and whistle, and is also a wonderful balladeer. He is a fine craftsman who builds his own pipes and plays instruments he built himself.
Nora Sherwood is a retired champion Irish step dancer. She also plays whistle and bodhrán, and sings and dances in the traditional sean-nós style.
