GRAMMY® Award-winning, International Bluegrass Music Association Award-winning, Billboard Chart-topping, and celebrated progressive Bluegrass band, The Infamous Stringdusters are set to release their 20th studio album in January 2026, aptly named ’20/20’. This legendary and much-adored band just released (TODAY) the foot-stomping first single from the album, “Working Man Blues” (Americana Vibes), capturing the grit, grind, trials, and tribulations of the 9-5 slog.

The tour in support of the new album will include a stop in Cincinnati, OH at Taft Theatre on Thursday, January 29.

PRESAVE Album 20/20: HERE

Guitarist for the Stringdusters, Andy Falco, recalls the writing of “Working Man Blues”: “This one came to me as I watch what’s happening now in our country and the world. Most people I know are working so hard to just barely get by, and it doesn’t seem to be getting any easier. I was looking to write a more traditional-sounding bluegrass song, and this one came out quite quickly in one sitting during the first recording sessions.”

At Dayton Vintage Dance, we socially dance many types of historical and modern dances. Our emphasis is typically on having fun with partnered social dances, but we also do set dances, circle dances, line dances, and solo dances as well.

Our normal mode of operation is as a one-room schoolhouse. This allows novice dancers to be paired with experienced dancers which helps novice dancers learn dances much more quickly than if they were to be paired with other novices and encourages experienced dancers to focus on clear communication and flexibility in dance.  Occasionally the classes are broken into groups if specialized topics are being taught that aren't suitable for all.

All levels and styles of dancers are welcome.

Our lessons are regularly attended by dancers ranging in skill from novice to workshop instructor.

Schedule: 

Every Friday except for select holidays

Sign-in: 7:45PM - 8:00PM

Lesson: 8:00PM - 9:00PM

Open Dance: 9:00PM-10:00PM

Students are welcome to enter through the front door or the back door. The lessons and dance will be in the main ballroom. Go straight down the hallway through either door and you can't miss it.

7:00 PM – Free lesson, all encouraged to come early
7:30 – 10:30 PM – Contra dancing

What is contra dancing?  Taken from: caldancecoop.org/resources/what-is-contra-dancing/ which has more details and videos
Contra dance differs from Square dance in that Contra dance is done in lines rather than in a 4-couple square.   Many of the terms are the same in both Contra and Square dancing, so if you remember any of the terms from old school days or previous occasions, you’re already halfway there.   Now and then, a Contra dance caller may even call a Square dance or two during the evening’s dance.

Footwork in Contra dancing is very simple.   Generally it’s just a walking step to the music.
