The Accordion Kings and Queens
Give it a squeeze
You’ll find a little bit of zydeco, a little bit of Tejano, some swing and a whole lot of polka at the 19th annual Accordion Kings and Queens concert. Step Rideau & the Zydeco Outlaws, who neatly mix their zydeco with blues and rap, and La Tropa F, the Grammy-nominated multiplatinum Tejano artists, are co--headliners for the show. (La Tropa F now boasts the third generation of the Farias family to perform with the group.)
