The Slogars, Don and Rose, are a husband and wife duo, with Don playing the accordion, and Rose on the bass, violin, and vocals.  Both attended the Cleveland Institute of Music, where Don earned a Bachelor degree in Music Theory, and Rose was a violin major.  Don started his band in the 1960s, with his late brother Ron. He also played with Eddie Platt and Jeff Pecon. In 1969, the Slogars became the back-up band for singer Eddie Kenik, at live concerts and recording sessions. The musical association with Kenik spanned nearly 30 years.  The Slogars also have recorded on their own, and continue to play in Cleveland.
