A few more chunes. We just kind of threw this set together with little practice time to see what would happen. Stephen is not playing his usual box here (his regular accordion and melodeon are back in Ireland), so it's a little dodgy at times. First tune is Mother's Reel. Stevie got it from his brother Tom of the band Ceide. Second tune is one of many Tommy People's tunes; we got it from Kevin Crawford. Box is C-sharp/D for the accordionists out there. Bouzouki is a Joe Foley and tuned in GDAD.

Hi , I play button accordion too. Love your stuff. Please put more vids on off this kind of repertoir and be sure to check out my chunes too! Thanks. Hector
I play guitar and i'm learning bouzouki and picking it up pretty well, and my mate plays accordian/melodian and hopefully we'll be able to be jamming like this pretty soon!
You can make it as hard or easy as you wish, but on the whole it is pretty forgiving, more so than the guitar I would say. Especially if you use a modal tuning like GDAD or ADAD. It is getting the strumming hand down that takes time. Go get a zouk!
