The 🪗 #MarchingBand photo used on this week's @accordionnoir podcast post (found by @nicheinterests) is really something

From a story about one of the first #Accordion marching bands back in 1935

Founded in the Moose lodge 🫎 in Mount Vernon, WA (halfway between Seattle and Vancouver 🇨🇦)

Great story about #immigrant music-man Hugo Helmer who "Music Man"-ed it all together

His shop is still there, selling accordions to the norteño market in the area ❤️‍🔥🪗
