Accordion Noir radio playlist 2009-01-02: Rowan and Natasha Enquist New Years!

AccNoir 2009-01-02

Just in case you’ve forgotten our weird mission, we’re continuing to share archival episodes of our radio program from ten years back, just to churn the sediment and circulate all the goodness we put into the old programs for the benefit of listeners who may not have been tuned in a decade ago.  That said, we’ve somehow slipped behind two weeks.  We will eventually catch up, but in the meantime we have this archival recording of Accordion Noir episode #109, our first broadcast of the new year of 2009, to share with you.  What made it special wasn’t just that it was the first of the year, but that it included a visit by our local squeezebox queen Natasha Enquist.  (Not in her first visit — we hosted her the previous March also — but they’re all great!) At its original online home this episode racked up some 3949 listens, but you can go on and continue enjoying it forever courtesy of its mirroring over at the Internet Archive.  Now here’s the playlist!
