Banjo player, singer, songwriter, percussive-dancer, choreographer, and square-dance caller, Evie Ladin reconnects Appalachian music and dance with other African-Diaspora traditions in her performances and recordings and in her teaching. She writes clever lyrics with mature arrangements, calls rowdy square dances for urban crowds, choreographs new body music/percussive dance for contemporary dance and film, leads seminars in movement anthropology, rocks straight up old time clawhammer banjo, and gardens.
