The Sybaritic String Band ("The Sybs") contra dance series with the Vancouver Rogue Folk Club includes performances every first Saturday from September to June.  The music is high energy traditional and contemporary  fiddle tunes with styles ranging from Celtic to Quebecoise to Klezmer. 

I'm the lone non-string player in the band, which features  Rich Sobel (fiddle, mandolin, djemba), Barry Cole (mandolin, banjo, guitar),  and Leith Davis (piano, double bass) and me (recorder, saxophones) .
