Low Maintenance on Rendez-vous des Cajuns.

Song:Pardon Waltz


Song: Church Point Breakdown

What is the name of the accordion player.I think I saw him in the accordion contest at Black pot.Thanks for the video

His name is Drew Simon. He is the drummer with the PLB...lol! He is great on the accordion also.

Great music, Wade. Their trade mark seems to be beard! Are you sure they are Cajuns and not Mooslims!?The accordionist doesn't play bad at all for a drummer! Actually, he is far out! And so are the others.
Thanks a lot for posting!!

... or does "low maintenance" refer to their respective chins?
Nice band!!

They play at Randols every Monday nite. The accordion player is Drew Simon and the drummer is Jamie Beard. The fiddle player here I think Savoy is not a member of there Monday nite band. They are very good I have taken a few lessons from Drew his wife had that accordion made for his wedding present from Mr Acadian. Should have been a Martin but she didnt know better.

She knew better!!

Absolutely! She knew exactly what he wanted. I had a chance to play it a few months back, love the sound of a C#.

I played on it as well so whats your point???

That's interesting, a C#. Someone told me that Jason Frey had one of those. What do guitar players and fiddlers think about that key?

Capo #1.

Most guitar players will tune down a half step and play as if they're playing with a D accordion. Fiddle players will almost always tune down a half step as well. It's really a fun key to play with because you get the volume of a C with the response of a D.

Dang, that's intriguing.
