That must be Severin from some Seventy years ago! I think it does not have to perfect to be liked. And very likeable!

This was absolutely fantastic! Great job!! 
Some of yall might remember I’ve commented things about the accordion on other posts. My brother plays a big one, very similar looking to the one in the video. It’s a sound I grew up with. Several years ago while visiting my folks (they lived across the country) my “banjo son” Branden played his banjo, pop was on the guitar, and my brother on the accordion and they played this song 
! Thank you for posting it!!

I love it! I’ve become good friends over the last year with a guy named Jeff Taylor. He started a Grammy-winning band called The Time Jumpers. Here’s a video of him talking about how accordion became a big part of their sound:

Jeff Taylor is so cool! I’ve been a fan of his for a while, and I got to meet him while I was in Nashville
