You don’t have to be Walter Ostanek to win fabulous prizes… it’s true, folks, there are benefits to being an Accordion Noir Radio listener and supporter — you become eligible to collect from periodic station giveaway contests!  Sometimes it’s just (“just”, ha!) accordion swag.  Other times, it’s free concert tickets!  Last night, it was the latter.  The playlist below reveals that the theme of the evening was touting squeezy performances happening at our local and soon-upcoming Vancouver Folk Music Festival, an incredible weekend of music from around the world.  You can download our curated selection from their lineup that made up last night’s episode.
