Accordion Tribe's album is a must-listen for fans of progressive folk, contemporary classical, and experimental world music.

The accordion is booming! At every corner, both geographically and musically, the longneglected allround instrument is surfacing.

Since its first tour as Accordion Tribe in 1996, this great band has guaranteed musical verve, blissful melodies and both gloomy melancholy and inquiring, searching sounds.

While their first release was - with great success - still heavily tailored to the live material of their tour at that time, the eagerly awaited current album 'Sea of Reeds' is a downright studio album (recorded in Lars Hollmer's famous 'Chicken House' in Uppsala, Sweden). This environment allowed The Tribe to fathom out and apply the entire range of their compositional ideas and their virtuoso realization. The result is an arc of sounds (with varying instrumentation) comprising folkloristic pieces ('Silvia's Tongue'), tango variations ('Tan-gocide'), waltz minnesongs, nordic ('Pas du valse').
Despite the deliberate stylistic differences the band has created a remarkably homogenous and very rich album, opening up the whole cosmos of the accordion.
