As a trio consisting of Claude Méthé, Dana Whittle and Denise Levac, Dentdelion has brought their fresh sound to audiences in Quebec, festivals in maritime Canada and most recently to concert stages in France and Spain. In addition, Dentdelion welcomes the next generation to the stage in the form of 15-year-old Colin Savoie-Levac on banjo, mandolin, feet & vocals and 13-year-old Béatrix Méthé on fiddle & vocals. The latter are themselves veteran performers, having performed since they were knee-high to a grasshopper on stages in Quebec, Scotland, Canada and the U.S.
Special thanks to the Chassell Lions Club, the Chassell Historical Organization, and the Sigma Rho Fraternity for making this event possible. For more information, contact Dave Bezotte at 482-4956.
