Reelplay is a New England-style contra dance band from Atlanta with Dave Marcus, concertina, and Robbin L Marcus on piano (and a bit of percussion) and Scott Russel on guitar playing a mix of tunes including New England, Quebecois, bal folk, ECD, and originals. Playing in bands such as Over the Moon, ‘Round Robbin, Renewable Energy and Holy Coyote, these musicians have lifted dancers’ feet and spirits for several decades.

A recent dance organizer said this about Reelplay: “The music was FANTASTIC! Great variety, fun, beautiful. Just great!!” Listen to Reelplay.
