I caught the tail-end of a concert by Park Slope’s Accordion Angels, a new accordion quartet, that plays vintage americana, old and new Europeans and what they call, “striking originals.”

They were playing in the Gardens of Union on Union Street near Fourth Avenue, a perfect spot for a Sunday afternoon concert. The show was part of the Local Produce Festival.

I heard their last song, a really classic piece of Americana, very slow, very soothing. I can’t remember the name of it now. I liked they way they sustained its almost other-worldly melodic calm. Amazing how soothing four accordians can be.

After the show, the group talked about changing their name. Apparently some in the group like the current name and others are lobbying for a name change.

The group will be at the Red Hook Waterfront Arts Festival on Friday June 6th at 7 pm at Valentino Park and Pier, Coffey and Ferris Street.

On Saturday June 14, they will be at Le Petit Versailles at 346 Houston Street at Avenue C. 7 p.m.
