Continentals Polka Band

The Nation's Capital Polka Band

About Me

Since 1972, The Continentals have performed at many festivals, concerts and dances each year, from South Dakota to Florida, and many points in between. They have had the pleasure of hosting nine Caribbean cruises and producing eight recordings.
With its distinctive "Continental" sound, the band certainly has carved its own niche in the polka world and continues to make new fans across the USA, World, and the Universe...
