We have recently teamed up with our good friend Andreas Schwarzkopf from Frankenmuth, MI to get some new lederhosen! His company, Bavarian Specialties, LLC ( www.bavarianspecialty.com ) has a wonderful array of trachten (lederhosen, bundhosen, dirndl dresses, shoes, hats, socks, shirts– you name it!) as well as recordings and other gift items from Germany and Austria. We’re all sure you’ll find Andreas and his peeps to be very friendly and helpful in finding the right attire or gifts from Europe. They will be at more festivals this year with The Alex Meixner Band so you can get your festive attire and sport it with the band too!! We’re looking forward to showing off more of our new styles in the near future!

Red Hot Polkas in Cleveland on June 23rd!
Red Hot Polka Blast on Sunday, June 23, 2013 from 2-6pm featuring Grammy Nominated Alex Meixner and his band from Palm City, FL with Cleveland Polka institution- the multi-award winning Don Wojtila Band.
I have admired Don Wojtila ever since I was a little kid hearing “Goodtime Polkas” at my Dad’s record shop and seeing the Wojtila Brothers band perform at the Evanstown Picnic Grounds out in PA. The creativity of the Wojtila band has always been a source of inspiration for my music and I hope to continue the tradition of playing the old tunes and creating new ones that will keep future generations interested in the Cleveland polka sound.
