There isn’t anybody playing conjunto music like Felipe Perez anymore. When people are talking about old school conjunto music, this is it. The True Vine.

On this new album, released at age 83, this Conjunto Hall of Fame Accordionist delivers a selection of old borderlands tunes and some originals, joined by fiddler Brian O’Donnell, a remarkable multi-instrumentalist and one of the most vital and attentive interpreters of American vernacular music playing anywhere today.
