Overview
Looking for an accordion player near Pittsburgh? I am the perfect entertainment for your event/ party! I am a professional accordionist. I perform all over Western Pennsylvania. I've been playing since the age of 9. I play all types of music for all ages. My music is very family-friendly. I play polkas, Latin, swing, standards, sing-alongs, line dances, ethnic music, rock n roll, Christmas music, etc. I play German music for Oktoberfest, Irish music for St. Patrick's Day, Italian, Patriotic, or whatever. I also come dressed in costume to fit the occasion (ex: Lederhosen for Okctoberfest) I can play on stage plugged into an amplifier OR I can stroll around taking requests from the audience!

An accordionist was a great fit for the Irish themed event and provided festive background music while people mingled during Cocktail hour.
Irish / Scottish Entertainment
Pat played great combination of classic polka music and modern music. He really created a fun atmosphere, and our guests had a wonderful time. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to everyone!

Accordion Player
Pat was truly amazing in playing the accordian for our mother's 90th birthday party! His selections were varied, he was promptly responsive in our communications over the course of a few months, he was punctual, he played a couple of requests for Italian music, and very pleasant to work with!
If you have an event that you need an accordian player for, he is undoubtedly the very best in our opinion!
Italian Entertainment
The people at the Octoberfest thoroughly enjoy Pats music. Many Danced , there was a lot of applause after each number. We would consider having him return.

About
If you're looking for entertainment such as an accordion player for your next party or event near Pittsburgh, then please read on. I'm a broadcaster by day and a musician by night. I'm the News Director and on-air news anchor for a Pittsburgh area radio station. I've lived in Pittsburgh for most of my life, graduated from Duquesne University with a degree in Communications and I currently reside in Zelienople, Butler County, PA. I started taking accordion lessons at the age of 9 and I've been playing ever since (I'm in my mid 40's now). Here's what you can expect from me as a performer: I will give 100% to the client and to my audience. My shows are ALWAYS family-friendly. I do take requests from the audience. And I always dress for the occasion. I have costumes for German, Italian, Irish, Christmas, whatever the theme may be. I always conduct myself in a professional manner. And I promise a lively show. I play anywhere from one to four hours. I play one hour, then take a 20-minute break, then play another 40 minutes, take another 20-minute break, then play another 40 minutes, etc... If the event is for a birthday celebration, I always give the birthday person a complimentary CD of my music (just an extra bonus).
Additional Booking Notes
I bring my own sitting stool to my performances. So the only thing I really need is an electrical outlet for amplification (if necessary) and a small card table to place my business cards, fliers, CD's, etc.
