About

Mike Wells

Instruments: accordion details
I play chromatic button accordion. Popular music of the last 100 years, all decades. From hot jazz to hip hop. Repertoire list at my webpage in the link, also see below for a more detailed list of genres.

Busking in 2024, after a three year haitus. Catch me on Gov't Street, the Inner Harbour and other locations around Vic.

Available for small events/venues, restaurants, markets, lessons. Also looking for a versatile guitarist and drummer for covering music in several genres (a trio+ with occasional guest musicians/singers).

Possibly interested in collaborating on original music. My influences: Paul Desmond, Pharoah Sanders, Sade, Stevie Wonder, Bill Evans, Herbie Hancock.

Here's a more detailed list of genres I love playing:

- jazz ballads / standards
- early jazz / New Orleans
- modern jazz / modal jazz
- western swing
- pop and folk music from Mexico
- Latin jazz / Brazilian jazz
- 70's soul, r&b
- 80's pop (tons)
- 80's power ballads and yacht rock
- modern pop (1990's - 2020's)
- film/tv
- Accordion cafe: music from around the world
- and more
