Hello friends~

Thanks for stopping by debweb to see my (forever growing list) of accordion brothers on earth. Playing and promoting accordion is very special to me. I have played for over 5 decades and taught music in Austin, Texas for 3 of those decades. My dream is to know each and every accordion player in the entire world lol.

My aim with these lists:

To show the world just how popular

and powerful the accordion is.

When I created my first list of

Accordion Sisters on my website debrapetersmusic.com long before FB.

My plan was to acknowledge women who

were out there playing their accordions.

During covid19, I moved the lists on to FB.

Then created Accordion Brothers Worldwide. Both lists on FB have absolutely exploded with players worldwide. Now, I bring these lists

back to my website today 1-1-2024

adding many more names of accordionists

from (deep searches) on the fabulous

and amazing internet.

If you are “one of us” accordion players and

if your name was missed, pls. let me know.

It is not my intention to leave anyone out

who feels they would like to be on “our” list.

I am only one person compiling these lists and

I absolutely know there WILL surely be misses. This is an ongoing project so please get in touch if you find anything amiss or someone who needs to be added.

I will update the pages as often as needed.

There are a high number of professional

players listed here and there are players

who love to play solo or

in orchestras, or go to accordion

conventions, accordion club meetings,

play polkas etc. The “greatest” accordionists

are listed here to the best of my abilities.

All types and styles of accordions are here.

All the many styles of music as well.

Piano accordions, button chromatic, button

bio-sonoric / diatonic, one row cajun

and tex-mex accordions. I love ‘em all.

I always appreciate input.

Just send me an email.

Accordionists are my best friends in the world.

I love to promote accordion and accordionists.

My lists are created from a place of

(deep and true love) for the instrument

and all the players.  D.Peters
