This is a great Christmas present for any of your accordion loving friends, and the first year that a Canadian has made it into this publication produced by Renee de la Prade in San Francisco. Katheryn is Ms November in this year’s North American Accordion Babe Calendar. On the CD she is featured on track number four “Uskadara Gider Iken”, a cut from Something About Reptiles new album, “Tovbe Tovbe”.  She is the only Canadian in this squeezey international publication and the only distributor for the calendar in Canada. You can pick up the calendar at People’s Coop Book Store on Commerical, Oscar’s Art Books on Broadway, Spartacus Books on Hastings, or you can contact Katheryn directly through the contact form at this website and get one for an Xmas special countdown price!

Fresh off of summer tours and with a new recording under their belts, the Reptiles are coming out in style at Balkan Night with Orkestar Sljivovica. Oct 5, 8pm-12. The whole band will be there…Elliot Vaughan, Alison Jenkins, Noah Walker, Katheryn Petersen, and Amrit Basi with Michael Alleyne…and of course Burcu Ozdemir. Could get a little hot, so remember to wear layers. ; ) The Reptiles play the first set, from 9-10 so get there early and make sure you get a seat -this event will pack out.

GK had it’s first performance this past Sunday the 26th at Brittania Community Centre’s Artful Sunday art market. We will be there next Sunday Sept 2 from 12-1. Come by and shake your Glittering Kingdom with ours!

Glittering Kingdom is Belinda Bruce, Lindy Gray, Katheryn Petersen & Jen Rashleigh.

“The Big Squeeze” is the film Noir influenced opening night show of this year’s Accordion Noir Festival, Sept 13-16th. Geoff Berner is host for this shadowy affair at the Cobalt that will feature the delicately raw talent of Norwegian accordion siren, Guro von Germeten, the sequined Glam Folk of Proud Animal and three mini-features involving unwholesome collaborations of local accordion artists with puppetry, wrestling and a burlesque ballerina. Things are shaping up nicely and we will have a website soon with more details and hints about who to watch out for….
