=== Folk revival and present === The [[folk revival]] movements of the 1960s led to a modest resurgence in the popularity of the concertina, particularly the Anglo. More recently, concertina popularity again seems on the rise, particularly the Anglo in the traditional music of Ireland and England. Renewed interest in tango since the 1980s has also seen interest in the bandoneon increase. American [[Country music|country]]/folk musician [[Willi Carlisle]] has been introducing the concertina (along with the button accordion) into American country music, reflecting a general resurgence of accordions in American music as well.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Willi Carlisle: Wordsmiths, Weirdos and Whip-Ass Concertinas {{!}} Holler |url=https://holler.country/feature/willi-carlisle-wordsmiths-weirdos-and-whip-ass-concertinas |access-date=2023-12-27 |website=holler.country |language=en}}</ref> Traditional music playing continues in many parts of the UK in the 21st century, often using English and Anglo-system concertinas. Concertinas are mass-produced in Italy and China, and are produced by individual workshops in Europe, South Africa, Australia, and North America. Modern-made instruments are in a spectrum of quality and traditionalism, with the most expensive instruments using traditional concertina-type reeds, while mid-level and inexpensive instruments take advantage of the lower price of mass-produced accordion reeds.
