New TDA blog

We've started a new blog that will work with our blog host. Oh, yes we have!

Here come "The Cul de Sac Kids"

The past 6 months I've been working on a kids CD. I've been threatening to do it for a while (about 10 years) and 2010 finally seemed like the right time to knuckle down and get it done. The CD is set for a July 20 release, but you can check out song samples here. I'll be adding an order button soon. Enjoy!

You may hear jokes along those lines soon , if an article by Seattle University Spectator is right. Accordion playing Seattleites discuss the rise of the accordion & the decline of guitars that overtook music in the 60's through 80's.

Have you noticed a rise in accordions in today's popular music? Team TDA has noticed the familiar sound in lots of T0p 40 bands - The Decemberists recently, Britney Spears years ago, & The Beatles decades ago. Who have you heard bellowing?

Spoof Trailer for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story

"Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" from Aaron Paul

What made "Weird Al" weird? Modern Accordionist and Accordion Player magazines, according to the spoof trailer for biopic Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.

It's all a joke, but I wish some savvy studio would take the idea and run.
