Hi everyone, we’re the Bierkeller Boys Oompah Band, a young German-American tuba-euphonium quartet. We’ve been playing polka across the Midwestern US since 2017. Our new record, The Bierkeller Boys Dive In!, has been a hit in the polka community, and we’d love to hear what you think as well. Cure those post-Oktoberfest blues!
Tracks include classics like The Beer Barrel Polka, the Pennsylvania Polka, and Do-Re-Mi, as well as deeper cuts including Western waltzes, traditional marches, heimat soundtracks, and beerhall singalongs. Arrangers include Norlan Bewley, Gail Robertson, Mike Forbes, and our own Niko Schroeder.

About the band
A bit more about the band for anyone interested--
The Bierkeller Boys are the Midwest's premier polka-playing tuba quartet. These four low brass aficionados specialize in what tubas do best — oompah music — including traditional and contemporary German American polkas, waltzes, marches, folk songs, light music, and other dances.
They regularly perform across the Midwest, spreading Gemütlichkeit whether they are playing Harmoniemusik for the dining hall or lively dances for the Oktoberfest Biergarten. Their unique instrumentation, dynamic audience engagement, and varied musical selections create an enjoyable atmosphere, whether you want to dance, sing along, or listen and chat.
Their versatile and engaging performances have brought them to contemporary and historic German American venues alike across Chicago, Milwaukee, St Louis, Denver, Kansas City, Omaha, and more.
