Join us for a celebration of the quintessential instrument of Zydeco and Cajun music, the ACCORDION!  

In the Louisiana tradition of "lagniappe" (a little something extra) we will be welcoming accordionists Max Lopez, Andre Nigoghossian, Andrew Carriere, Mark Marcin and Maureen Karpan to the stage with some hard driving music for your dancing pleasure. When they are not up front on the "squeezebox" you will be enjoying their musical talents on bass and guitar as well. They will be joined by rhythm section Sam Siggins, Debi Krilanovich and Jim Scott.  A unique nonstop evening of waltzes, 2 steps, and shuffles with a "nouveau" feel. You don't want to miss this one!!
