    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…
