The Happy Wanderers

We are a group of friends and neighbors who love music and especially love accordion music.  Yes, we play polkas!  However, we also play old favorites and patriotic music.   We started our group when two new neighbors moved in next to an accordion  player and we realized we all needed to play great music together.  Now, we have added some dear friends and others from our small Mantua, Utah town.  We will play several patriotic songs, some oldies, and some of our favorites.  We hope you will enjoy our selection.
