Maivish navigates a deep current of
musical heritage that spans the British
Isles and North America. Coupling
time-honoured songs and tunes with
tradition-inspired original compositions,
their performances are infused with lush
vocal harmonies, inspired interplay, and
captivating spirit. Good Foot Dance
Company explores the complex cultural
twinings of the root-system of American
vernacular dance, from Appalachian
flatfooting, to tap, to contemporary
urban dance.
Together, these two ensembles bring their diverse influences and experience to the stage, meshing layers of precise footwork and body percussion with a musical palette that ranges from driving to haunting to eloquent.
Maivish:GoodFoot presents an exhilarating mix of traditional and original music and dance in a performance equally at home on a festival stage or in an intimate house concert setting…
