Off She Goes / Boys In The Bunk House - Accordion

Myself and Gerald Freake, founder of the Fogo Island Accordion Group playing a couple of popular square dancing tunes, off she goes, boys in the bunk house and rowed up in a dory on the 4 stop and ugly stick.

Thanks Aaron, I’m out in Vancouver and this helps me kick the home sickness away until I come home again.

Fantastic musician, that is deep talent, they are having fun, perfect.

Amazing playing, young fella. Keep it up and pass it on. I’m amazed at how you can play and still talk to people. Sign of a true musician, that is. There’s a part of your soul that plays. And you just let your soul play. And damn! Your soul is talented!

Wf Coaker I have never seen anyone play a stick before! It is a throwback to the days when folk didn't have much money and made their own instruments (a bit like spoons and washboards?) This is real music!

Sapphire Lewis Sapphire Lewis. The ugly stick is a new instrument here. I think it’s cool, but I’m fascinated by Aaron. I love when a musician goes somewhere else while they’re playing. He can even have a conversation when he’s playing. And he plays really well

Wf Coaker It's great to see skilled musicians like that; it is inspiring to me. Thankyou for answering my comment.

It is so great to se a talented musician, especially when his talent is the kind of talent that isn’t acknowledged by the music industry. Because, let’s be home, Aaron has amazing talent. But he’s never going to get a record deal,

Such a nice groove way to go!

Hi Aaron. We met at Gerald's last September and played a few tunes on fiddle/accordion/guitar on our last evening in Fogo. Good to see you on here creating a resource for this music. I loved the historic footage you got from Gerald's tape too. Keep 'em coming. Glenn

You wouldn’t have the number sheet for this tune by chance?

[@AaronBrownFogo]

For which tune? I can try and write it out for you soon!
