 The Accordion Noir Festival takes place from September 11th to 13th at the WISE Hall, 1882 Adanac, Vancouver, BC. CFRO's Friday night ‘Accordion Noir’ radio show/podcast (accordionnoir.org), in conjunction with local accordionist Geoff Berner, presents the second annual Accordion Noir Festival. This will be three days of live music, film screenings and workshops dedicated to the accordion. The culmination of the three-day Accordion Noir Festival, beginning at 4pm, is a seven-block accordion parade (weather permitting) from Grandview Park north on Commercial Drive and east up Adanac Street. Arriving 15 minutes later the afternoon is filled with various workshops (accordion repair, songwriting and squeezebox history!), followed by a 6.30pm program of international accordion films, and at 8pm a concert/dance featuring Halifax’s squeezebox-punk purveyor Story, klezmer kingpin Geoff Berner, and rock accordionist Jason Webley.
