ABOUT
I am a professional musician performing professionally for over 50 years, who is an accordionist, with three concerts at Carneige Hall to my credit. I am now playing a digital accordion (like having a small, multi-piece band). I have been guest accordion artist for the Arizona, Chicago, NH, Accordion Associations, and the Augusta Symphony Orchestra, offering musical styles not usually played by accordionists, looking for venues to perform since I am now spending more time and living in Maine full time, not restricted by my dental practice or my other musical travels on the road.
Your town or organization might have a spot for a jazz swing accordionist (which sounds like a small combo and the jazz is light, swing jazz, with standards, country and light rock thrown in and it has been most enjoyed by folks who have heard it - not the usual accordion fare and very uplifting). During the year sometime, there might be a spot this entertainment may have a place in one or more of your events. Having retired from private dental practice 14 years ago, I have toured and played the States and Europe and now would like to be closer to home. I am happy to send snippets of recordings if necessary and provide musical entertainment of high quality for your possible events.
Respectfully,
Dr. Jeffrey William Grosser
