Now that we have a newborn, I have (a little) more justification for staying up all night working on our accordion events calendar. I’ve added a couple new features, including:

• List events by artist. Now when you’re looking at an event, you can click on the artist name to get a full list of that artist’s upcoming events. (Examples: They Might Be Giants, Steve Riley and the Mamou Playboys)
• Search by location. Use the search box at the top of the calendar home page to find all events within 50, 100, 250, or even 500 miles of any city you choose. Admittedly, this isn’t completely new, but it works more reliably now and you can also get an RSS feed of the results — for example, all the events within 50 miles of New York City or 100 miles of Lafayette, Louisiana.

Best of all, we currently have almost 300 events listed on the calendar! But we know we’re still only scratching the surface, so if you know of an accordion concert, club meeting, or workshop in your area, tell us about it!
