Flo Brannigan (1920-2014), Lancashire – UKby Rob Howard |
Florence ‘Flo’ Brannigan, the mother of accordionist Gina Brannelli, passed away peacefully on October 5th in Blackpool, Lancashire. Gina’s father Jack also died recently, on June 23rd. They had been married for 73 years. Flo, like Jack, was a professional accordionist, and they worked as duo for many years, from the 1930s. They performed many times at The Band on the Wall, a pub in Manchester, still a well-known performance venue for many types of music. Picture below: A very young Flo and Jack Brannigan |
