Dawn Chorus is Grace Hendrickson-Jones (Les Quatre Patates, Modern Birds) on flute, Cedar Stanistreet (Nor’easter, Nimbus) on fiddle, and Rosie O’Neil (Marie the Band, Pajamajam) on guitar. With musical backgrounds ranging from Irish, Americana folk, and old-time to classical, together they create a delightful mix of tunes that sends dancers sailing around the hall.

Lindsey Dono is a mainstay of the regional (and sometimes national!) contra calling circuit, and we are lucky to have her back at Black Diamond! She’s a serene and sunny presence, guiding new and experienced dancers through fun and flowing dances. When not at the mic, Lindsey can be found mentoring up-and-coming callers, geeking out over choreography, and working on dance floorcraft.
