Accordion Dreams, is produced and directed by Hector Gal�n, narrated by singer/songwriter Tish Hinojosa, and is presented to PBS by Latino Public Broadcasting in Los Angeles.

Accordion Dreams features yesterday's and today's squeezebox trailblazers that defined Texas Mexican Music. The arrival of the European button accordion to Texas and its merging with traditional Mexican songs gave birth to an explosive new sound. From lively polkas to smooth waltzes, Accordion Dreams captures an exhilarating musical style that is rapidly gaining fans worldwide. This program looks at today's young rebel accordionists who have expanded this musical style to the fringes of rock, blues, and pop, while paying homage to its pioneers.

"an exciting look at the new generation of players" Agustin Gurza, Los Angeles Times

"A must see history of the accordion." David Robledo, The McAllen Monitor

"...both a Tejano cultural history and a heartfelt love ballad to the most maligned of instruments..." Marrit Ingman, The Austin Chronicle
