If you're looking for a dose of nostalgia, a quirky musical experience, and a variety of global music genres, you've come to the right place! I want to share my love of the accordion with people of all ages. As an actor-musician, my performing experiences have taken me from musical theatre productions to children's shows to sold-out concerts with the band Mucca Pazza.

September 29, 2026Elizabeth provided entertainment for our condominium’s Octoberfest Celebration on the outdoor patio. She delighted our residents with festive musical selections played on her accordion, accompanying a meal of German schnitzel, brats, and beer! Everyone enjoyed the music and seeing her play in lovely, cultural attire.
As musician and performer, Elizabeth is skilled, professional, confident, and poised. She engages in a pleasant and affable manner while entertaining.
I highly recommend Elizabeth Avery for your next event!
