A few friends along with the late George Karklins from Latvia had been going to concerts at Club Accord in Birmingham. <br /><br />As a result of these visits they decided to form an accordion club in Stoke-on-Trent. And so it was on 28th Jan.1985 that about 50 enthusiasts met from Staffordshire and surrounding area and the club was formed. At the present time we have a steady membership of around 70members.Of these we have about 21 playing members and the remainder are members who like to listen to accordion music. <br /><br />We meet at the Holditch Miners Welfare Club on the third Tuesday in each month. We alternate between a members night where we have playing circle where we play a library of tunes in the simple key of ''C''. This is done to encourage players of different abilities to play in company without feeling intimidated. Then our chairman invites better players to play music of their own choice. We then reform in the circle and play a couple of rounds of solo tunes of each player's choice. <br /><br />On the alternate monthly meeting we have a professional entertainer who is doing the rounds of the clubs in the UK. We have had them from in our own country including Scotland and Wales,Russia,Italy etc.We also have an accordion band who play at concerts to raise funds for charity namely Children in Need, The Air Ambulance and a charity based in Derbyshire which helps to bring 12 children from Chernobyl for TLC at a farm and amongst families in the area. It is said that it prolongs their life by about 2yrs. The fund has been able to purchase a blood testing machine and to provide clean needles to give injections as the children suffer from diabetes.<br /><br />We have a website if anyone cares to take a look at us at <a href="http://www.northstaffsaccordionclub.co.uk/">www.northstaffsaccordionclub.co.uk</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8798707710465532082-3369873580402923756?l=ssjunkyard.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Clare Whitenoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798707710465532082.post-5212830857897406482008-04-01T05:23:00.000-07:002008-04-01T08:06:55.666-07:00<strong>Name:</strong> Bamf<br /><strong>Plays:</strong> Lap steel guitar, Tibetan singing bowl, Theremin, Saz.<br /><strong>Style:</strong> Try anything<br /><strong>Favourite musicians:</strong> Hendrix, Julian Cope, Jerry Garcia, Enio Morricome,....<br /><strong>Based:</strong> Stoke-on-Trent (will travel)<br /><strong>Contact:</strong> <a href="mailto:bamfphotos@hotmail.com">bamfphotos@hotmail.com</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8798707710465532082-521283085789740648?l=ssjunkyard.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>simon bamfordhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06420037960241009451noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798707710465532082.post-92076390007856575982008-04-01T05:10:00.000-07:002008-04-14T05:08:20.498-07:00<span style="font-weight: bold;">Name: </span>Alan Mayer<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Plays: </span>Harmonica, bongos and penny whistle<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Style: </span>Rhythm and mood type music<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Favourite musicians: </span>Sandy Denny, Joni Mitchell<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Based: </span>Burslem<br />Interested in collaborating on folk music, he is also a songwriter<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Contact: </span>Leave a note for Alan in the Burslem Arts shop<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8798707710465532082-9207639000785657598?l=ssjunkyard.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Clare Whitenoreply@blogger.com0
