karen tweed rocks. The accordian has always scared me, not to mention the impact of 2 of them together, however karen's magic makes it all good. Thank you for response soess4153

Fleadh players (especially purists) always look so miserable and unfriendly when playing (a bit like the banjo player in film deliverance), HOWEVER these people do the music justice, especially the lovely smiling woman in green, who epitomises beautifully what music should be all about, thank all here for sharing ... playtk

The smiling woman in green is Karen Tweed and she is so wonderful.

When she is playing she kind of gets united with the accordeon. She is something special!
