The live performances of The Alex Meixner Band thrill audiences with shows that combine virtuosity, creativity, and energy in a way that surprises and entertains. After many years of requests for a live recording (check out the DVD/CD combo!) of their on-stage antics, the band has finally captured their spontaneous spirit.
Alex is featured with his dynamic accordion, horn and vocal performances along with Hank Guzevich (of the 4 time Grammy-nominated Polka Family Band) on trumpet, guitar, and vocals; Joe Tierney on Sax, Clarinet, Guitar and Vocals; and Tom Haller on Drums. Special Guest vocalists Michael Morris and Bubba Hernandez (a 2 time Grammy® winner with Brave Combo) add to the excitement.
A mixture of Rock/Polka Mashups that contain elements of Ozzy Osbourne, Queen, Sir Mix a Lot, Guns N Roses, and Ramstein are featured along with the beautiful Mexican ballad, Volver, Volver and new songs including “Let’s Stop Thinking, Let’s Start Drinking!” to make for a fun show that is sure to be enjoyed over and over.
