ABOUT
THE BAND
|
|
The Tom Brusky Band
is a versatile ensemble comprised of
talented,
award-winning
musicians. Their sound focuses on Slovenian and
Cleveland-style polkas
and
waltzes, although when desired, they broaden our music sets to
include popular standards, classic country, Latin-American, foxtrots,
two-steps,
swing, and Christmas holiday music.
The Tom Brusky Band has amassed a
staggering repertoire of over five
hundred
songs, all of which they play by ear. They can rile up a
college crowd with all the polka favorites such as Roll Out the Barrel, She's Too Fat For Me, and E-I-O, and strike golden-agers'
sentimental chords with such familiar, timeless classics as The Green Grass of Home, That's My Desire, and Waltz Across Texas. They've
entertained
crowds from ten to a thousand -- from next door
neighbors to United States presidents and governors.
To
better accomodate all of the requests they receive to play for private
parties, the band has cut back their 2009 public performance
schedule by more than half. After playing Southeastern Wisonsin's
club
circuit for many years
with much success, they want to give other bands the opportunity to
play
those venues while they focus on
providing quality music for
private occasions (anniversaries, birthdays, etc.) and other special
events.
