We had a blast at the Bavarian Blast in New Ulm this year. The weather cooperated for the most part and it was a complete pleasure sharing the stage with the other bands, as well as a bunch of fun guests! We had a day to recoup all of our other work before we start back up for a return visit to the biergarten in Hoffman Estates, IL on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, we head to New Carlisle, IN for our first visit to Moser’s Austrian Cafe. I’ve heard great reports about the food and atmosphere, so I’m looking forward to performing for the fine folks out there.

Thursday brings us to our only Toledo show of the year– at Oak Shade Grove in Oregon, OH. Hope to see all of our Toledo friends before we head on east for our gig at the Evergreen in Fleetwood, PA on Friday, which is always one of the highlights of the summer schedule.

On Saturday, our good friends Max and Sandra Eggerl are having us at their Bavarian Brauhaus in Hanover, MD for the first time. Max used to bring us to Blob’s Park over the years, so we’re looking forward to checking out his great menu and having a great time.

See y’all out here !!

I fly out this weekend to Fairbanks, Alaska for the first time to teach Diatonic Button Accordion classes at The Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival. It should be a fun experience in a new environment for me. I’m looking forward to working with the students up there!

The band will be hitting the road starting next week with a return to New Ulm, MN for Bavarian Blast. We’ll be there for all 3 days before continuing on to Hoffman Estates, IL (suburban Chicago), a new-to-us venue, Moser’s Austrian Cafe in New Carlisle, IN; Oregon Ohio (suburban Toledo) at the Black Forest Cafe; The Evergreen in Fleetwood, PA, and the Bavarian Brauhaus in Hanover, MD. Tickets are available in advance for a number of these shows!

I’ve been busy in the studio finishing up work on the upcoming Alex Meixner Band album, “Make Some Noise” which will be released in the early Fall as well as some other really cool projects. Keep an eye on the social media for some exciting announcements!
