Silver Spring Community Dance presents Sargon deJesus with Sligo Creek Stompers (Co-Sponsored Dance)

Sligo Creek Stompers play a raucous but refined blend of traditional roots music: Appalachian & Midwestern old time and bluegrass, New Orleans ragtime and traditional jazz, haunted Irish fiddle tunes, classic country, and Texas & gypsy swing. Inspired by scratchy 78rpm records, contra dancing and a good bottle of whiskey, the Stompers are keeping the flame of American stringband music alive in the Washington, DC area.
