This Saturday night we’re playing one of California’s oldest continuously operating saloons.
Smiley’s Schooner Saloon
41 Wharf Road
Bolinas
Show starts 9:15pm – $7
As always we’d love to see you at the show!
Bolinas residents are notorious for taking down road signs to their seaside hamlet. So to help you find us, here’s an aerial shot of our approximate location.

Mad Mags is about to talk with Howard Dillon on his radio show, “Morning Blunder” on KWMR. There’s an online stream. http://kwmr.org/
Thanks to fellow Accordion Babe, Amber Lee for this YouTube find! It’s a witty, brief timeline of the fabulous free reed instrument and ends with an au courant rap featuring two accordions. Ya gotta love it.
And did I mention Amber Lee and the Mad Maggies will be playing with Vagabond Opera at the Mystic Theatre, June 19?
Accordions Rule!
A recent Gallup survey by NAMM shows some serious appreciation of music and those who make it.
According to the survey most Americans believe music-making is beneficial for kids and teens. And a striking eighty-five percent who do not play a musical instrument say they wish they had learned to play.
No doubt they heard about our thicker than average corpus callosums. 
I’ve entered “Rough Music” and High Seas Lament” in the “Doing Dylan” songwriting competition.
If you have a moment, please give our two tunes a vote click each here on this page.
It’s an easy way to show your support and push us towards international notoriety.
They have a strict privacy protocol and don’t make you sign up for advertising promotions or other such nonsense.
Big Thanks!
Speisekammer Restaurant owner, Cindy Kahl taped us performing “Magdalena’s Revenge” at their recent Spring Fest. Thanks, Cindy!
The Springfest was so much fun! Here’s more proof:
Beer Holding Contest with Johny Blood adding tuba excitement. Our Brian Rourke and David Groff tried their arms at it.
Women’s Beer Drinking Contest with yours madly competing.
And the Beer Drinking Contest. You’ll here our “Pica Pica Polka” underscoring the guzzling.
