Duo Niepold / Cutting
“Uphill Way”
A new one from the marvelous Anne Niepold & Andy Cutting!
Who obviously should have ridden bicycles 
Listen to the way they intertwine their twin button boxes while keeping a playful bass cycle

Accordion practising plans. Mainly blogging publicly about it to encourage me to properly do it! https://vivsacademicblog.wordpress.com/2025/05/26/accordion-practising-plans/ #Music #accordion #squeezebox
A beat-up East Asian Sheng mouth organ shows up at 8:00 in this #BBC doc. I dropped a comment that cousins of those were developed 3,000 years ago and then carried back to Europe on the Silk Road in the 1600s and started spawning the harmonica, melodica, reed organ, #accordion and all Western free-reeds

XTC with the #melodica solo passes the #accordion friendly test

That’s a hard one. I wrote a book about Accordions, so it would have to be a musician. But there’s a lot of accordionists, which one?
Oh! Cyrill Demian Patented the 1st instrument called an #Accordion — it may have been called something else, but they scribbled that out and wrote “Accordion” — on May 6, 1829
You can see on the diagram where a word has been scribbled out and written next is “Accordion“.

Too late for this I got today from Le Winston Band: a modern Quebecois folk rock zydeco group
It’s literally “yacht rock” as it’s about getting a wild gig on a big boat off the coast of New Brunswick, and then not getting paid

I’ve started my list like that, yup
It’s already changed a few times
I probably won’t offer the opportunity to share my favourite hour and fifteen minute five #accordion (and that’s it) album by a lovely new-music artist who died this week
It could be rather life changing if you experienced it
But I’m not sure if folks would go for that one
#ListeningClub seems a bit more pop music oriented

A remedy @Geoffberner might prescribe, “Swing a Chicken 3 Times Over Your Head” 
From the album
We Are Going to Bremen To Be Musicians

Granny’s Attic (Worcester, UK) has a new record out!
With
the remarkable #CohenBraithwaiteKilcoyne: Concertina, Melodeon
&
George Sansome: Guitar, Bouzouki 
&
Lewis Wood: Violin, Viola 
+
Sid Goldsmith: Double Bass
Here’s a vid of Cohen’s “Outlandish Knight” (from his own Play Up the Music! record
Just came up with what may be my pick for next week’s (June 1) #ListeningClub album
Will probably keep people guessing unless they happen to know it
And entertaining and weird throughout with distorted electric #accordion in there (somewhere) 
️
John Linnell from #TheyMightBeGiants told me about this band after he remembered them as contemporaries back in the day
Still undecided between this and another one though

Proud to say we enticed Miss Murgatroid out of retirement to play our @accordionnoir festival back before COVID curtailed our live activities
We didn’t get any soundboards but I was pretty happy about the festival the next week:

Saturday was World Fiddle Day, so my friends and I attended a cèilidh.
@AqiDrago
Not sure if I have to officially post that I’ve collected the #ListeningClub #frisbaton from its secure location and will be caring for it over the week in preparation for next Sunday
If I do an #accordion obscurity, your job may be to narrow its year, continent, country, language, artist, album
And I’ll try to make it as interesting as I can. Thinking of various ones now
For a head start you can preview almost 20 years of @accordionnoir radio episodes at http://AccordionNoir.org
Sun is out in Dumfries & Galloway. Planning on spending Sunday in the hammock digging further into the fab Accordion Revolution by Bruce Triggs @AccordionBruce.
Also thoroughly recommend listening to the latest episode of Accordion Noir Radio @accordionnoir (hosted by Bruce) on Wednesday evenings or catch up with episodes on their podcast.

They draw straws every year
Not sure how it tends to effect the #Eurovision results
Someone should do a statistical analysis

Pretty sure Woody’s recordings are mostly over on Smithsonian/Folkways,(for now)
Some at the Library of Congress issued by Electra/Rounder in the 90s and are streaming but the extensive notes are missing 
#Folkways keeps the old Arhoolie Records albums available — including tons of #zydeco #conjunto & #cajun #accordion because unlike the rest of the US folk revival, Austrian-born Chris Strachwitz was not afraid of the squeezebox
