Accordion Noir radio playlist 2021-05-02: What’s up, June?

AccNoir 2021-05-02

Poring over the playlist that Bruce provided, I could discern no emergent theme or topic to this week’s hour-long episode of CFRO Co-Op Radio’s weekly Accordion Noir broadcast. The songs are in every style, from every part of the world. (Of course, that’s the regular theme!) Don’t worry yourself trying to figure out what they have in common, the answer is simply the free-reed aerophone. Just sit back and enjoy the set of tunes! If your Apple or Android podcast subscriptions (strongly recommended!) haven’t alerted you to its availability yet, you can enjoy listening to it as digital audio courtesy of the Internet Archive. Here’s its playlist:
