Your favorite kazoo playing, accordion squeezin roustabouts - the scoundrels of Vagabondage - are very pleased to be heading up to the North Bay later this month to play at the super cool art collective in a church - 515 Orchard Street Performance Gallery in Santa Rosa in order to open up for the one and only Mr. Sexy Pants Accordion Man himself - Mark Growden. Come on out for the show if you're looking for some serious rowdy good times.
What do other folks say about Mark Growden?
"Growden's Music is a caliope of tangos, marches, pedal steel blues, and eloquent acoustic ballads. In his hands, parade scores unravel to become inebreated waltzes. Ballads are stretched thin and poked with forks. Melodies dance like wicked children... His songs are a carefully crafted patina of cultural influences, arranged and orchestrated with an uncanny ear for what, where, and more importantly how they sound best." - S.F. Bay Guardian
"A gifted composer of twisted tangos and distorted marches, Growden is indeed a beautiful freak." CMJ Weekly
