Pete Contino Accordion

Pete Contino, son of legendary accordionist Dick Contino, who made “Lady of Spain” a No. 1 hit, has carved his own path with a sound that defies labels. After touring over 15 years as his father’s drummer, Pete took up the accordion and infused it with the spirit of Tom Waits, Rickie Lee Jones, and Jimi Hendrix. The result? Gritty, soulful “blues with a touch of zydeco.”
