SUMMARY:Contradance with Long Time Travelers
DESCRIPTION:Long Time Travelers: contradance with caller Rose Sheehan\nFriday\, February 28 | 7pm | $20-30 suggested\nMAGMA\n11 Pleasant St · Gloucester\, MA 01930 \n  \nThough their band name may not be well-known\, the four musicians of the Long Time Travelers are very familiar faces on Cape Ann. Husband-and-wife violinists Scott Moore and Erica Pisaturo join with twin brothers Charles and George Clements (double bass and guitar\, respectively) to purvey the quartet’s trademark “chamber roots” music: a heady blend of the uptown and the down-home\, all masterfully interwoven into a contagiously fun and engaging experience. The group’s first outing in 2025 is a one-two punch: a contradance with caller Rose Sheehan at MAGMA (Friday\, February 28 at 7pm) followed by a concert at the Annisquam Village Church\, Saturday\, March 1 at 7:30pm.\nMoore\, Pisaturo\, and both Clements all moved to Gloucester around the same time\, just before the pandemic. Since first joining forces in 2022\, they’ve performed together a handful of times\, weaving fresh new arrangements of bluegrass and oldtime Americana along with their own original compositions and a smattering of experimental and classical chamber music.
