Tracy Schwarz's influence?

As mentioned in a previous post, I like Tracy Schwarz's style of playing Cajun accordion. Not too fast, not too slow tempo with a great 'chanky-chank' feel. Since I have no idea how to email Tracy to ask him personally, I was wondering if anyone has any idea who Tracy's influence(s) were in playing the accordion? Didn't he hang around with the Balfa Brothers years ago? He had to be influenced by someone while down in LA.

I too really like his style; I was in contact with him about 3 years ago but the e-mail he had then seems to be non valid now. - Nout
