About This Event:
A contagious groove and feel-good melting pot of raging fiddle tunes, saxophone solos and unrequited love songs. We fell in love with The Faux Paws at our 2019 festival, and at our 2022 festival they rocked both the Dance Hall and the Main Stage. We are thrilled to welcome them for a full weekend of dance and music.

The music of The Faux Paws would be hard to pin down with standard genre descriptions. These three close friends (two of whom happen to be brothers) feel a musical kinship that transcends any stylistic limitations.
Brothers Andrew and Noah VanNorstrand grew up playing contra dance music with their musician mother in the band Great Bear. Chris Miller was enamoured with bluegrass and studied jazz before going on to play with GRAMMY nominated Cajun-country band The Revelers. They have enjoyed playing together for ten years, onstage and off, but only recently have been able to make The Faux Paws a priority.
Now, with an experimental but cohesive vision, and a debut recording under their belt, the trio brings together seemingly unrelated musical elements into one joyful and distinctive collection, deeply rooted in the raw humanity of folk dance and music traditions.
