Accordion Noir Radio

It's fundraiser time again! And in fear that people are sick of accordions, we're disguising a special episode of our show under the happy rubric of the ukulele to sneak some support we might not otherwise earn. Whoo-hoo! Should be great fun.

We are apparently one of the best online fund-raisers for our station, setting up those monthly donations really add up! That's so cool. We're proud to be able to help keep our little station that can alive.

This is where we get to say, "Please support ethical and unusual media by becoming a member of Co-op Radio," because we love you.

Welcome to the essay-like playlist for the long-delayed posting of our first annual Accordion Noir movie soundtrack themed special! Rowan scrounged up most of the material constituting the show, so he's also eventually gotten around to sharing his sources and other choice tidbits of trivia that got left on the cutting room floor in the heat of the moment.
