play Stenson's #2 during Southern Appalachian Day at Hagood Mill, Pickens, SC in May.
Lucky for us, the cold weather is here (and we hope it'll stick around) and we are ready to dance! Even if the cold snap doesn't last, we'll have lots of cool drinks to purchase and water is always free. Hot dog plates with homemade cookies and chips will also be on sale. We've been busy playing out but not necessarily making videos, so here's one from Hagood Mill's Banjo Extravaganza with Michelle Turner and Andy Brooks.

Andy Brooks
Andy is on the board of the Oconee Heritage Center, as the marketing director. He also knows music and how to have fun: hence, the Old Keowee Contra Dance was born! He hopes that it's successful enough to become a regular event in our little corner of South Carolina, surrounded by lakes, mountains & forests. Andy comes from a long line of fiddle players and is a South Carolina Arts in Education Folk life/Traditional Arts approved artist. He is also the longest-serving instructor in the Oconee County Young Appalachian Musicians (YAMs) program and the 2016 South Carolina State Fiddle Champion. Archives
