ABOUT
Accordion player seeking band or other musicians. Currently I am playing mostly jazz. I enjoy accompanying blues, folk, rock folk, country, etc. I like to play music that most people do not expect to hear on the accordion. I've played solo piano for about 20 years but my ensemble work for the last 2 years has strictly been with the box.
