Accordion Noir Radio etc?
The online universe of Accordion Noir continues to evolve, here’s the current status (updated in 2020 or so):
We’ve been doing the Accordion Noir Show since 2006. Vancouver Co-Op Radio (CFRO 100.5 FM) is Accordion Noir’s terrestrial home where we do the real-live radio show that gets magically transmitted around the world. They’re updated with playlists on this blog and at the Internet Archives.
Subscribe yourself to the Apple or Android podcast.
You can still check out the first six years of Accordion Noir‘s back-catalogue on our creaky old site too.
Bruce’s book Accordion Revolution: A People’s History of the Accordion from the Industrial Revolution to Rock and Roll was released into the world in 2019. Get yours here.
We’re also on Twitter at @AccordionBruce and @AccordionNoir
The Accordion Noir Festival site for information on the annual Accordion Noir Society’s Festival of extreme accordion.
The Vancouver Squeezebox Circle site for all your Vancouver, BC, Canada accordion needs (except a local accordion shop, sigh.)
And for the truly historically minded:
The remains of our original Myspace presence!

Hi, looking to find out more about an old Meinel & Herold accordion we have…..any suggestions?
I’m not sure I know any more than what’s here. It’s notoriously difficult to track information about the thousands of old companies that made accordions. Can’t some of the authors of the 50,000 books on guitars take some time off for other instruments?
You might ask at this active UK forum filled with knowledgeable folks: http://www.accordionists.co.uk/portal.php
Cheers!
