Bio

Dunham Shoe Factory​ is a collaboration between Anna Patton, Mac Ritchey, Todd Roach and Dave Haughey. They are a contemporary acoustic ensemble playing original compositions influenced by world traditions. Combining the clarinet, oud, percussion and cello,  their music draws from a myriad of styles including Brazilian, Egyptian, Jazz, Turkish, Classical and Indian music. ​

Currently based in New England​, individual members have performed in a variety of settings locally, nationally and internationally over the past 25 years. Coming together as Dunham Shoe Factory in 2016, the group has created a unique sound by weaving the threads of common experience that exist between the players. Two of them hold masters degrees in music performance, two of them have studied traditional Arabic and Turkish music, two of them have performed with the Paul Winter Consort, and all of them have spent time improvising in a variety of settings.  

 The result is a musical experience ​that is exuberant and soulful. In the words of audience member Laurie Danforth, “​The multi-cultural blend of instruments and compositions was fascinating. They are such outstanding musicians and creating the quartet was a joyful decision for us all.”
