“Bruce called and said he wanted to record his accordion CD all in
one day. I chuckled to myself. No one does that. Well, he proved me
wrong. Bruce blew me away. Not only did he play it all in about 4
hours, but every track was recorded all in one take! No overdubs!
How does one man with only two hands make all that music in one
sitting! It's amazing. His technique is off the hook, his
arrangements are well thought out and exciting, his enthusiasm comes
through in every song. I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as
I enjoyed recording it.”

“Bruce brings the accordion into the digital age and doesn't
disappoint in applying the technology to achieving a unique,
creative, fully orchestrated, kaleidoscopic view of classic rock 'n
roll. You won't believe that he is doing it all with only two hands!
Bruce is filling a niche that no one else has explored on the
accordion. His arrangements are extremely entertaining and
nostalgic...and he even goes into some directions that the listener
would never expect -- like his entire set on Star Wars
themes...which is a creative blast! You won’t be disappointed!”

Champion,

“I first heard Bruce at the AAA Festival in Memphis, where he wowed
the audience with great songs from the 60’s. Next, we shared a stage
in Dallas at the NAA Convention, and on FOX 4 TV promoting the
event. Bruce performed his James Bond Medley. He truly awed all of
the folks there, with both his playing and his entertainment
skills.”
Jeff Lisenby
Nashville studio musician and two-time International Accordion
Competition Bronze Medalist
“Bruce takes the accordion into areas of music never before thought
possible. Classic Rock 'n Roll played with authentic rhythms and
licks! This CD is not to be missed.”
Lenny Feldmann

world...”

“Bruce, we are still “hearing” your performance in our heads!
Everyone is talking about what a great show you put on, and how much
we enjoyed it. Thank you for making our meeting one to remember!”
Lee Paulson
Washington Metropolitan Accordion Society
“What an amazing performance! Your technical skill is hard to
distinguish from perfection, but your ‘making music’ was even more
impressive. You were in complete control of that huge instrument and
didn’t play sterile music as most do. It was instead elegant,
innovative, powerful, compassionate, lovingly executed.”
Ragnar Overby

“I really enjoyed your 60’s presentation in Dallas. You are my new
‘Accordion Hero’.”

“I wanted you to know how much I enjoyed your performances at the
NAA and MAMTG. What you are doing for accordion is very important.
You show us that the instrument is adaptable to a whole different
style. And we all enjoyed it!”
