Accordion Noir Festival at MacLean Park

• 2.00 - Vancouver Accordion Orchestra: What is the sound of 8-10 accordions playing in harmony? Under the direction of Anthony Schulz, the debut performance of the Vancouver Accordion Orchestra will answer this question and more.
• 3.05 - Geoff Berner: If you’ve ever been to a past Accordion Noir Festival, you should already be well familiar with the cynical twist East Van’s “avenging angel of klezmer” brings to the humble squeezebox, but if you have somehow missed him, like ships passing in the night, it’s well past time you address the oversight! He may be performing with some rare special guests, so do be sure to catch his set!
Billy Bragg says ‘Cherish him - There is no one like him. Fantastic’
• 4.10 - The Queen Bees, Sue Baines and Chris Lindgard, are seasoned Canadian musicians who hail from Vancouver, British Columbia. Both their musical journeys began while they were young, and they have been performing professionally for decades. They began working together in 2024 and are buzzing with the delightful results of their collaboration.
Sue and Chris first jammed at their mutual friend Almeva Styles’ home. Over the years, they found that they both love all kinds of music from Folk to Blues, R&B, Swing, Motown, Punk, and old time Rock n Roll and The Queen Bees Band was born.
Known for their strong vocal styling and solid and creative instrumental skills, The Queen Bees have been delighting audiences across the Lower Mainland and Victoria since the summer of 2024 and look forward to seeing you at their next show.
