Influences
*
Ron and Jason perform "Bacca Pipes," dancing together around 2 swords at the Northern California Renaissance Faire, October 2007.
Whether it is driving folk dance rhythms, spooky waltzes and polkas, or exotica from the far side of the world, The Brunos deliver living history, and traditional tunes from around the globe all with their own California spin.
It can be circus music, pirate music, music for a masked ball or a rowdy Morris ale, and it will make you want to dance, the way people have danced for thousands of years.
Join us at The Golden Toad Music and Dance Camp! We'll be teaching Morris Dance, English Sword Dance, English Country Dance, and Old English tunes.
The Pipe and Bowl Morris Men perform "Trunkles" at the 2007 Northern California Renaissance Faire. Dancers: Ron, Dale, Jason, Anselm, Bob, Jim, and Jeremy (later).
