“He used to be a classical pianist, then something went wrong…” — Jason Webley, accordionist and performer

Duckmandu is the stage name of Oakland performer, Aaron Seeman. A player with virtuosic technical skill, his repertoire includes, but is not limited to, 70’s rock, Broadway, klezmer, classical, country, Sousa marches and even a polka or two. However, Duckmandu’s specialty is alarmingly accurate accordion recreations of classic punk songs. His 2005 release, “Fresh Duck for Rotting Accordionists” is a note-for-note re-make of the entire first Dead Kennedys album. Seeman also plays with the Romanian folk group Fishtank Ensemble, composes for San Francisco’s “Punk Rock Orchestra” and has recorded with Mr. Bungle.
