Dick Zavodny play with Emil Krikac. Emil is 89 and will be 90 on Dec 31, 2010. He has been playing button box accordion since he was 14. He heard a neighbor playing an accordion one evening in the quiet farmlands of Nebraska and asked his dad if he could learn to play too. He started on with one row of buttons and graduated to the instrument he plays today. He has been playing ever since.

Polka Nuts 8-22-2010 Polka Lover's Club Golden CO

Polka Nuts 8-22-2010 Polka Lover's Club Golden CO

Here is the start of a song. My battery went dead. Sorry.



Dulcimer is a big part of the Polka Nuts. After the first set the band switches it up. The dulcimer player can also play drums and accordion. The accordion player also plays dulcimer, but with a much softer tone. The trombone players switches between drums and saxophone. I personally like the saxophone best as it totally changes the tone of the band.
