HOHNER ERICA - FOLK LINE. In the olden days, music was not just a fun pastime, but also an important means of communication. Travelling folk would learn the latest news on their stops, and turn them into songs to better remember.
Of course, some of these stories might have been slightly adjusted to better suit the bard's overall tales - but who knew for sure, if the dragon on the other side of the country had actually been slain or not? An important part of this archetypal form of folk music was the accordion. A light weight and big scale made it the perfect travelling companion.
In the Folk Line, we collect our traditional European folk accordions. With their original sound and their historic look, they'll carry you away to the days of King Arthur and his men.Nothing draws us in as much as music, nothing is as universally understood as song. Making music together is a pastime many enjoy, and gatherings often turn into parties once a song is initiated. With the Erica, we offer an accordion that is small enough to be easily carried around, making it perfect for those kinds of situations. Be it for some proper old sea shanties at the local pub, a little cumbia session with friends, or some campfire romanticism with American folk songs, Erica is the right companion.
