Some of our 2008 Winterfest Entertainment!
Winterfest is not just a banquet, it is an experience! Entertainment from musicians, pirates, faeries, sassy maids and laughing lords will entertain you throughout the evening.
Add to this, dancing, vendors, merriment, good food and drink! The entertainers below are just a few of the acts that we will have drifting around the room...
The Gypsy Nomads are known for their highly energetic
performances. From dynamic guitar anthems, to pounding
drum jams to original French ballads delivered with a
gypsy flair, their show is a whirlwind of guitars,
tambourines, toms and tape loops. Collaborating since
2000, The Gypsy Nomads delivers an awe inspiring blend
of Gypsy, Celtic, Medieval and Rock styles. The past
few years have seen this national touring duo
performing to captivated audiences from coast to
coast. The Gypsy Nomads features songwriter, artist
and veteran of the punk scene Scott Helland on guitar,
drums, programmed and live loops and French
artist/dancer Samantha Stephenson on percussion, drums
and vocals. Their show is an inventive and unique mix
of the modern and medieval creating a visually evoking
sonic landscape in their unmistakable
Gypsy-Nomads-style complete with Scott's hand drawn
backdrops reminiscent of Edward Gorey. Check out the
feature music article on this bewitching duo in the
winter 2008 issue of New Witch Magazine!
The Gypsy Nomads perform year round across the US and
have shared festival stages with Candice Night of
Blackmore's Night, drum and bagpipe band Albannach,
Scotland's Clann an Drumma, Atlanta's Emerald Rose and
New York's Voltaire. They have been featured
performers at PA's Spoutwood Faerie Festival, NY's
Sirius Rising Festival, St Louis' Focal Point Folk
Theatre, and at the International New Age Trade Show
in Florida and Colorado. Their music has been featured
in several independent films, including 'Riders' which
aired on the Sundance Channel in the US.
Fire and bellydancing performances

If you listen to Lee's harp playing you'll hear some real Magick!! He never seems to age, either.
Makes you wonder, don't it?
