🎤 Bellowing Bellows

Discover the latest folk sensation, a duo of diatonic accordions led by Lolita Pariaud and Jonathan De Neck. Their original compositions create a dialogue between bellows, rhythmically uniting in harmony, soaring on the wind, and ultimately finding each other. Expect whispers, swirling dances, and shared smiles as the heart of traditional dance beats strong!
