Magic Foot (Special Event)

Magic Foot brings together the talents of four innovative players--Colin Lindsay, Chris Stevens, Brendan Taaffe and Stefan Amidon--who are charming audiences from South to North with their high driving, high energy music. Rooted deeply in the Irish tradition, the players pull inspiration from a wide array of sources--from French accordion players to James Brown?to create their own sound, and are equally adept at lifting dancer?s feet off the floor and warming the soul in concert.

Magic Foot is Colin Lindsay on fiddle and concertina, Christian Stevens on button Accordion, Brendan Taaffe on guitar and vocals and Stefan Amidon on percussion and mandolin. Magic foot plays Irish music marked by the tight melodic interplay of fiddle and accordion with guitar, trap set--unusual for Irish music--and harmony vocals.

Each band member is a talented and versatile musician in their own right. Together, their chemistry creates that elusive spark--music with great rhythm and strong emotions, rooted in tradition but looking for the future.

Join us at the Glen Echo Town Hall: 6106 Harvard Ave, Glen Echo, Md. 20812
