The MossyBack Morris Men have been dancing the ancient Morris Dance in Seattle, WA since 1980. As an astute person you may notice from the picture or our name that we are all men!
We dance the Cotswold style (from the Cotswold area of England). The
villages whom traditions we dance are Bledington and Ducklington. We have
been dancing these traditions as a team for 20 years now. We have created a few new dances to add to the repertoire of traditional dances. We've also
been known to let our wild side show with some border dancing and fire performing.
Read some actual press articles here or check out these reference letters including Queen Elizabeth's comments. Enjoy browsing our photos of past dance-outs.
We are available for hire. Please contact us!
The MossyBacks are always looking for a few good men...
Join us at our practices on Thursday nights We practice from 8-10pm in the Seattle area. Please contact us if such a thought crosses your mind.
