An unabashed polka party with a 2nd degree KZSU connection. It screams pet project yet manages to walk the line between inside-joke goofy and musical moxie. The vocalist has a show-tunes quality, the drums are on the rock side, and of course the sax is all decked out in polka splendor. But to get to the point: these songs are funny. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll want to listen to it again and again, and most importantly, you will please the local czech / polish community to no end. Do everyone a favor and give it some love.
