With all the restrictions of COVID-19, music festivals and concerts have been shut down until further notice. This party was my attempt at giving my friends a fun and memorable music festival experience for 2020. Back in the 1920's when we had the Prohibition Era, our country tried the "noble experiment" of banning alcohol. Illegally ran "speakeasies" started popping up that secretly served alcohol and gave people the experience they were all deprived of. My goal of the "Squeezeasy" was to give everyone a 2020 summer experience that they would remember and cherish during these limiting times. This private music festival was within state regulations and nobody was affected by COVID-19. You might like our other videos!

If you're a beginner accordionist, chances are you're looking for accordion lessons, an accordion teacher or maybe you've searched out some "how to play accordion" videos on YouTube. While most beginners could benefit from an accordion teacher or accordion lessons, some might already have ear training or know a little music theory from other instruments but just need a little help translating it to the accordion. The Accordion Chord Chart is a new learning tool developed to help you further understand and memorize chords on both sides of the accordion without the use of sheet music. In this video you will learn how to play the accordion using an Accordion Chord Chart, we will also go over the Top 5 features of the Accordion Chord Chart including the 120 Bass Accordion Button Chart, the "Top-Down" view, "Half Shades" for chord inversions, and stay to the end for a SECRET ACCORDION HACK that very few accordionists know about! Please like and leave a comment! This is a new style of video for me so if you're enjoying this learning style and want more, let me know!

Lately... I've been... I've been... "Happier" :) This accordion cover is a little different than my usual uploads. This raw and uncut, acoustic accordion cover of "Happier" is a reminder (especially for me) that things don't have to be perfect in order to be beautiful. I myself, along with plenty of other musicians and content creators, sometimes struggle with the mindset of making everything as good as it can be before I release it. And although that can serve you in some situations, I'm realizing it can also hold you back. This was a small exercise for me in "creative expression" and "going with the flow", something I want to become better at in music and if life in general. Instead of spending hours trying to get every note just right, I decided to roll with it and stop after my second take. I hope you guys are forgiving of the flubs and enjoy this arrangement as well as the message here... Lean into the uncomfortable, because it's in moments like these that we truly grow. I hope that lately, you've been "Happier" too.

Originally invited to play on the boat stage, we managed to get on the main stage of over a dozen other stages this year.

This was my first show with a drummer, and only my 4th show since my first open mic!
