UNC music scholar Dr. Bill Ferris was in attendance, tapping his toes as his folklore understudy and emcee Katherine Doss posed questions to the evening's performers— Adam Price, Eric Roehrig, Heather McEntire and Lee Waters.

One highlight of the performance was Heather McEntire's rendition of Un Deux Trois’ "Everything That Is Happening Is Happening," recorded live for your enjoyment.
