I'd recommend the one in the D link, since 32 bass would be a good choice and it looks like a good, complete package. I made the mistake of buying a 120-bass accordion when I was a beginner and the number of bass buttons was overwhelming. But if...

May 10 Vintage Book Caroline's Party 274

The sounds of summer surround the atmosphere in the backyard of my house in Lowell. There is a shabby, old swing set left from the people who had owned this house before us. The hinges are rusty, the swing seats are cracking, and bee’s nests...


Wow! I really like it. Using first person is ok as long as you don't use it too much, and this isn't too long haha stories are like 700 pages long sometimes. One of the things that I really liked was how it just gave you such a calm feeling, and...

Ryan Brunet and the Malfecteurs

With the ongoing revival of Cajun music, there’s nothing earth-shattering about a competent accordionist who happens to be in his mid-20s. Unless you factor in Ryan Brunet, that is. He doesn’t hail from the prairies of Southwest Louisiana, the territorial hot bed of traditionalism, but Vin Bruce’s bayou country, where decent traditional players number in the handfuls. Through constant practicing and listening to Nathan Abshire recordings around the clock as an adolescent, Brunet learned his accordion well. He’s one of the cleanest, most precise players to come along recently, nailing notes and runs without any overplaying or annoying valve clicking.

Most selections are traditional. A handful were written by or associated with Abshire, including ā€œThe Life of a Musician,ā€ in which Brunet capably feels the sentiment of the song. He’s joined by a couple of Lost Bayou Ramblers, Alan LaFleur on doghouse bass and Andre Michot on lap steel, so any LBR comparisons aren’t that far off the mark.
