Accordion Noir radio playlist 2024-04-17: Mary Beth Carty award show & Co-op Radio Fund Drive
After another little glitch, we’re back, with an hour-long episode celebrating the recent win of the Canadian Folk Music Award for Antigonish County’s own Mary Beth Carty, who we’ve been boosting here since the Myspace days (Squeegees!), plus more squeezy music along a similar vein. If your Apple or Android (or plain old RSS) podcast subscriptions (strongly recommended!) haven’t alerted […]

Accordion Noir radio playlist 2024-04-03: April And Another Thing
Nothing is easy for poor Bruce, and the well-oiled operation of his getting these episodes out into the world and online is really starting to run up against rather more friction than we are accustomed to. (Maybe we shouldn’t have skimped on that bellows replacement after the first 500 thousand miles! Really it was just […]

Accordion Noir radio playlist 2024-03-06: Next Time in March

For this week’s program, host Bruce confides: This week’s theme is “Things with March in […]

Accordion Noir radio playlist 2024-02-28: It was Guy Klucevsek’s Birthday Monday, so we played a bunch of random tunes
Our Accordion Noir host Bruce Triggs is experiencing some kind of computer collapse (new computer, not old — so he can’t go forward and he can’t go back) in slow motion, making every episode he painstakingly splices together on it a kind of exquisite torment. (I would reach out to our listenership for help, but […]
Customer Reviews
I love accordion, and...
I LOVE this show! Great tunes showing just what this versatile instrument can do. Music from traditional to punk! Yes!
A rare find
I like that there exists a podcast of accordion music, a lot what he plays is new and interesting if not enjoyable. But I wish he didn’t talk so much and didn’t proselytize.
