ALICE, Texas — Some of the best accordionists in the world will descend on Alice, Texas next month for a free Conjunto Festival that is boasting the Biggest Accordion Shootout Finale in Tejano History at La Vision Park on November 12 – 13, 2021.

All these years, I’ve been doing music and being a part of this grand finale of all the accordions at this conjunto festival de parte de (from) Quartermoon Productions with Mr. Jim Luna, it’s going to be good!”

I’ve done some accordion shootouts before with maybe three or four guys but this one’s going to top it — top it to the max — we’ve got great accordion players,” he said. “It’s an honor to be a part of that and do something that’s never been done before with that many accordion players, so it’s an honor to be a part of that.”
