On Holiday

• Track Listing

Join the Café Accordion Orchestra for a musical cruise with ports of call in France, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and the USA. Imagine yourself at a sidewalk café in some romantic locale, sipping a glass of wine or a cup of espresso, contemplating that one true love. But don't be surprised if you suddenly feel like dancing! On their second release, 'On Holiday', Cafe Accordion Orchestra continues to play the special blend of French Musette, vintage swing, Latin and European dance music that has made them perennial concert and dance hall favorites. Of 'On Holiday', The Minneapolis Star Tribune says 'Café Accordion Orchestra is a dance band for people who still love to waltz and rhumba, an old-school combo. Led by the quietly dazzling Dan Newton, this quintet knows the value of understatement, warmth, discretion, subtlety and easy and genuine swing - not the zoot-suited kids' cliché that's all the rage. They'll make your toes tap, your eyes twinkle and your heart long for a shipboard romance...'. And Minnesota Daily says 'On Holiday will make you feel like dancing -- and not just in that hip, zoot suit kind of way.'
