Guy Klucevsek and Alex Meixner perform New-Polka in Brooklyn
Guy Klucevsek and Alex Meixner played a great concert at Barbes, Brooklyn on Friday night, August 21st. Half of the show they played together on many of Guy’s fast and furious compositional exponents of polkas and other such odd-meter dances. The other half of the show they played solo, Alex performing some of his favorite polkas and folk tunes from Eastern Europe. Guy played original compositions spanning his past 20 years as a performer. It seems like this might become a bigger thing for these two giants of accordion. Both originally from Pennsylvania, both with early traditions in polka and the like. If there’s Nuevo-Tango and New-Musette, is this New-Polka?

[...] Close your eyes and imagine yourself in a tent in Munich. Grammy Nominated Polka sensation Alex Meixner is ripping through an amazing classic Oktoberfest set (complete with Lederhosen and Alpine horn). Two of the best competition chefs in the city are serving up award winning sausages. The bartenders are serving up amazing German beer in huge steins. And then you reach the point when you know your dreaming… The girls of Wasabassco Burlesque are now doing their take on classic german dances (including the famous sausage dance).Now all you have to do to make this dream come true is come to the Bell House on Thursday, October 8th.
