A FORMER world champion accordion player will be hitting the high notes during a performance in Rowley Regis.

Pearl Fawcett-Adriano, ex junior and senior world champion, will play at the Black Country Accordion Club on Monday (September 22).

Club secretary Lou Ambrose said: “Pearl is unique with her style and presentation of her music which is very entertaining. This is a grand opportunity for all music lovers to hear the maestro at work. We are expecting enthusiasts from far and wide to attend.

“The aim of this club is to promote the accordion but we also like to offer our members and visitors variety in music and entertainment.”

The Sheila Fawkes Quintet will play at the club next month, offering range of popular swinging jazz and vocals.

Monday’s concert will be at the Rowley Regis Disability Centre, Rowley Village, at 7.30pm.
