Event
Monsters of Accordion 2010 in Portland
With squeezeboxes strapped to their chests, the "Monsters of Accordion" (Jason Webley, Corn Mo, Renee de la Prade, The Petrojvic Blasting Co. and variety of special guests) are launching an assault on West-Coast cities from Seattle to Los Angeles this December.
"I keep meeting so many amazing accordion players, and the idea is to bring them together every year," explains Webley, who organizes the annual tour.
The result is a tour-de-force featuring the most entertaining accordion performers currently working in North America. But don't expect a night of polkas, because these aren't your grandmother's accordion monsters. Instead Webley and company will be delivering an evening of squeezebox-fueled drinking songs, Celtic-punk jigs, retro-rock anthems and Balkan gypsy music.
Special guest Eric Stern of Vagabond Opera joins for the Portland show.
