Whether rocking the dance floor at a New England contra dance, or painting for a rapt concert audience a musical interpretation of local history, or striking a perfectly joyous note at a wedding celebration, Atlantic Crossing has been a favorite band in Vermont for nearly three decades. Their music, the traditional music of New England, is deeply rooted in the Celtic British Isles and in French & Maritime Canada, and their arrangements reveal a profound love of these traditions, together with a high level of creativity and emotional expression, all delivered with a healthy dose of fun.
With a reputation as an in-demand contra dance band, Atlantic Crossing has toured widely in the USA and beyond, and have played at many of the major dance series as well as at festivals and dance weekends across the nation.
