SUMMARY:Cedar County Cobras and Awful Purdies
DESCRIPTION:Englert Presents \nCedar County Cobras and Awful Purdies\nLive @ The James Theater\n\nOn-Sale Schedule\nMember Presale: Begins Tuesday\, September 3rd@10:00 AM CT\nPublic On-Sale: Friday\, September 6th@10:00 AM CT\n\nTicket Options\n$18.00 + Fees – General Admission\n$20.63 + Fees – General Admission (Day of Show)\nCLICK HERE to learn more about our fees.\n\nMembers\nIf you are a member of The Englert and have a promo code\, please click “Add Promo Code” before choosing your seats. CLICK HERE to learn more.\n\nShow Description\n \nCedar County Cobras play American Roots & Blues music from the last century. The music takes on an “old time” blues feel that would most likely be found in a juke-joint down a gravel road in rural Iowa. Arriving with an upright bass\, foot-drum\, mandolin\, and a collection of guitars this duo plays music that is best described as “boot-stompin” delta blues and roots blues. Fans of the Cobras have described the music as contagious\, acoustic rockabilly swamp blues\, or old-time country with the gritty sound of soulful blues. Tom Spielbauer is the singer/ songwriter for the duo\, known for deep haunting vocals and playing slide guitar. His music partner\, April Dirks\, plays the boogie-blues on the upright bass. The recent album release\, Homesick Blues\, has made the international and national blues charts. They have charted at #1 for acoustic blues album\, #1 for Iowa album AND up to #15 on the Top 50 Blues Album Chart for the Roots Music Report. The Cobras have played hundreds of shows across Iowa from the local brewery to the large festival stage. For more on the Cobras visit: https://cedarcountycobras.com\n\nAwful Purdies is a Folk-Americana collective of five multi-instrumental women\, powered by seamless harmonies\, banjo\, accordion\, cello\, guitar\, mandolin\, and bass. The sound is an earnest nod to traditional American music\, folk\, old country\, bluegrass\, honky tonk\, and soul.\n\nThe live performance experience is intimate\, containing both humor and insight. On stage\, Awful Purdies actively share gratitude and support of one another and take turns stepping up as lead singers and songwriters.\n\nSince 2006\, Awful Purdies have been raising families\, telling women’s stories\, advocating for human rights\, and engaging with their communities in the midwest.\n\nThe Great Unraveling\, their 4th studio album\, was named Best 2021 Album by a local artist and “Something In the Water” earned Best 2021 Song by a local artist by Little Village Magazine.

SUMMARY:Contra Dance
DESCRIPTION:Come and learn traditional dances with live music. Contra dancing is a series of repeated patterns with its roots in folk dancing going back to Jane Austen’s time and beyond; it is also related to Irish ceili dancing and American square dancing. Our dances are great for beginners\, as there is no footwork to learn. The caller goes through each dance with us before the music begins\, then “calls” the dance with the music\, telling us what to do next. No problem if you get mixed up — other dancers can help you. Bring a friend or come alone; there are always plenty of people to dance with! Children are welcome with parental supervision. The easiest dances are at the beginning of the evening. Casual dress and snug footwear are encouraged. Free\, but donations welcome. It’s great fun!
