This is a spectacular celebration of the arrival of Autumn. Fantastic Alex Meixner and his band of Grammy Award-nominated musicians put on an incomparable display of musical virtuosity. Combine this with authentic German dancing and bell-ringing by the beautiful Alys Schaefer plus topping it all off with wonderful food an incredible Oktoberfest will be had by all.
Who: Alex Meixner
Neo-polka
I have been a lifelong musician- first performing in public at age 6 with my 2 sisters as the Meixner Kinder, accompanied by my father’s band. From these early performing experiences, I have gone onto lead a life immersed in music. I have performed and recorded with a multitude of artists from all around the world and teach music students ranging in age from 6 to 76. I perform on trumpet, piano accordion, diatonic button accordion, keyboards, bass and drums- in addition to other horns and the occasional vocal (or yodel). I currently lead The Alex Meixner Band and Jazz Visions as well as colloborate with Bubba Hernandez in our 2007 Grammy-nominated Polka Freak Out project. Additionally, I enjoy collaborating with artists in many musical genres for studio projects and live gigs. The Alex Meixner Band is determined to bring good vibes and a happy party atmosphere to everyone through the most energetic & dynamic music on the planet!
