Actually, I did write about Alex. http://accordiontokaren.com/?p=484 And I know about you because of him. He mentioned your name to me when we were talking after my interview. I’ve also heard about you from James Gerke–such a nice guy!

Also, if you know your accordion you would Martinas, who you wrote a blog about, is really a fraud musician. If you want to write about sexy accordionists that are unknown, write about Alex Meixner.

My point is we have to modernize them. All the people mentioned in this blog and comments from Ginny Mac to Alex Meixner are VERY very very close friends of mine. We have the same goal. Make the accordion Marketable again.

Musically –

Cory

I’m so glad you like the blog. I went to your site and you play beautifully. I also loved your tutorials, which I plan to reference soon. The view from your back deck on the island in Ontario is also quite fine. :)

My husband gave me an accordion for Christmas and I am up to C, G, and F on the bass buttons. I’m having a great time and am SO glad to find your blog. I have subscribed and look forward to learning more about things accordion to you :)

We binge watched every Mollie B Christmas special during the break and first saw, and were amazed by, Alex Meizner there – so seeing your interview was inspiring. What a nice guy.

Happy to join this world!

How fun to discover new artists. As we all said when Renee de la Prade came first came up with the concept of a Babes calendar, lets take the accordion away from Lawrence Welk and give it Sophia Lauren. Or at least remind the world that that happened ages ago! Thank you for this blog Karen and keep squeezin’!
