Great accordion music despite a mechanical issue

Bob was fantastic at playing. Unfortunately a part on his accordion broke and he had to stop about an hour early.

I am so sorry for my accordion breakdown. I still can not get it working and will be sending it for repair today. I appreciate your kindness in working with me on this. I was impressed with your new offices and your people were very responsive to the music. I apologize again. My contact is 503-805-3842 and I will give you a very discounted price if you ever choose to hire ne again.

Kind, flexible & talented musician!

Bob was great to work with. Our nonprofit hired him through GigSalad to play accordion music for a woman in hospice who loves this kind of music. He was very flexible with timing, and the family said he played beautifully. The music made her so happy, which meant a lot to everyone involved. We truly appreciate Bob and would gladly recommend him.

Thank you for the nice Review. This was a delightful Woman who loved Polkas and a loving Family. They were very appreciative of the music, dancing and clapping to the Beat.

I was honored to play for them and make one of her final wishes come true.

What a treat for grandma and family.

Thank you so much for coming to play for my grandmother. Seeing her eyes light up when you started playing meant the world to all if us. I have a newfound appreciation for the accordion. We will never forget this!

Hope to see you again soon.

What to expect

I play both a traditional acoustic accordion and a digital accordion. With the digital accordion, I add orchestral sounds such as trumpet, trombone, sax, clarinet, violins, strings, mandolin, guitar, piano, organ, vibes, bass and many more to enhance the accordion sounds depending on the style of music to be played.
I play a wide variety of styles; German, French, Italian, Irish, music standards from the 20s to the 70s, big band, Dixieland and more.
