The Mahoning Valley Button Box Club was one of the first diatonic accordion ensembles. The club has had as many as 30 musicians, with women and children performing on the same stage with men. The club first met at the Slovenian Home in Girard, Ohio, and drew its members from the Penn-Ohio area. The players were inspired by the button box revival led by Frank Novak, Lou Trebar and Lojze Slak, among others. They have taken their happy music on tours across the United States, Canada, the Caribbean, and twice to Slovenia. The group has released four albums and won annual awards from the Polka Hall of Fame. Players practice every week and appear in parades, concerts, fairs and festivals.
