About Us

Upon his return from World War II, where he traveled with the USO entertaining troops, Joe Roberts Sr. opened J & P Accordion Headquarters in 1945 on Park Row in Stamford. Shortly thereafter the name of the business was changed to Connecticut Music. In 1967 the store moved to Bedford Street where it remained until our final move in 1987 to our present location on Newfield Avenue. Joe Jr. literally grew up in the business spending time at the store since his elementary school days honing his skills in becoming one of the areas most respected guitar technicians. Mike joined the business in 1979 and Pete came aboard in 1986. Family owned and operated since 1984, Joe Sr. retired in 1986 but rare is the day you won't find him at the store doing what he loves to do best, helping people.
