Welcome
In the mid-80's
some folks in Flagstaff, Arizona took a notion to form a club for the
purpose of playing acoustic music, playing and dancing at the Contra
dances they would host, bringing in local, regional, and nationally
recognized entertainment for the enjoyment of the community, and
sharing this good fun with whoever wanted to take part in it. The good
times have been many and through the years the Flagstaff Friends of
Traditional Music realizes we are part of a larger body of people
throughout the land who share the love of the music that unites us.
This web site is a continuance of this notion.
