Band and DJ to Play TAUNY Benefit Dance Party February 10
Band and DJ to Play TAUNY Benefit Dance Party February 10 A local band and a local DJ personality will play for a winter dance party to benefit TAUNY, Traditional Arts in Upstate New York, at the Best Western University Inn in Canton from 7pm-midnight on Friday, February 10th. The event is part of the kickoff weekend for Canton’s Winterfest. The music starts at 7pm with classic rock and R&B tunes for dancing with The Noncommittals (Barry Carson, Steve Manders, Nils Peterson, Ted Ritzko, Radio Bob Sauter and Ariel Shembry). Special musical guest with the band will be drummer Kyle Tupper. Then, from 9:30pm to midnight, DJ Tapatío, aka David Sommerstein, host of North Country Public Radio’s The Beat Authority, will feature great funk, Latin, hip hop, and pop jams to keep everyone on the dance floor late into the night. “Last winter’s dance party was a huge success, and people had a great time dancing and visiting with friends. I hope everyone will come out for an evening of music and fun, and to support a great organization,” said TAUNY Executive Director Jill Breit. Tickets are $10 each, and can be purchased at the door. All proceeds from ticket sales will benefit TAUNY. The event will also feature a 50/50 raffle. There will be a cash bar during the event. The Best Western University Inn is located at 90 E Main St, Canton, NY 13617. TAUNY is a nonprofit organization that showcases the folk culture and living traditions of New York's North Country, offering opportunities to experience, learn about, and reflect on issues related to life in our rural region.
