Susan Taylor with Avant Gardeners (Sunday Contra)

The tunes are eclectic, original and rootsy - American hybrid variety. The group mixes traditional American, Quebecois and Irish tunes with their original compositions, all flavored with the complex rhythms of the tabla and the improvisational prowess of the Gardeners. One of our favorites, Susan Taylor, returns to call with us.

Band Lineup: Bert Carlson (guitar), Laura Light (fiddle),

Ralph Gordon (bass) and Loren Oppenheimer on (tabla- percussion).
