CAO has been delighting audiences and dancers alike since 1994, performing French Musette, Hot Club Swing, Greek, Armenian, American Jazz and Blues standards, Latin music and sounds from film soundtracks as well as original music. CAO's sound has taken them to Vienna, Austria for performances at the International Akkordeon Festival. They have appeared in New York at the Lincoln Center's Midsummer Night Swing series, Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion, The Minnesota State Fair, as well as festivals, theaters and dance halls across the United States.
“Cafe Accordion’s music is stylish yet appropriately timeless, transcending trendiness with an easygoing charm.” — Christopher Bahn, The ONION, Jan 2009
