Tom Brusky

We're a versatile polka/variety ensemble comprised of talented, award-winning musicians. Our primary sound focuses on Slovenian and Cleveland-style polkas and waltzes, although, when appropriate, we broaden our music sets to include popular standards, classic country, Latin-American, foxtrots, two-steps, swing, and Christmas holiday music... catering to several generations of music lovers. Our band has amassed a staggering repertoire of over five hundred songs, all of which we play by ear.
Based in Milwaukee, we play locally but also travel to wherever our music is desired. We’ve entertained crowds from ten to a thousand--from next door neighbors to United States presidents.
Everyone’s entertainment needs and budgets are different, so I will tailor the size and volume of my band to suit any occasion. We'll perform as a two- or three-piece combo for smaller or more intimate settings, and as a four- or five-piece band for festivals and other venues where the widest variety of music is desired.
NEW FOR 2009: To better accommodate all of the requests we receive to play for private parties, we've made the decision to significantly cut back our public performance schedule. After playing Southeastern Wisconsin's club circuit for many years with much success, we want to give other bands the opportunity to play those venues while we focus on providing quality music for private occasions and other special events.
For more information about myself and my band, feel free to contact me through our website at www.tombrusky.com as I do not check for messages on MySpace.
(And yes, that is a picture of my cat, Kittling!)
