      This page lists every Wisconsin-based Polka Band that I have been able to find mentioned in various on-line and print sources, or seen in person at dances, concerts and festivals. Like my Wisconsin Bluegrass Bands page, this page will attempt to list every known Polka band in the state, whether or not they have ever recorded anything, whether or not there is other known on-line information about them, and whether or not they are still actively performing. Please write if you know about any bands not listed, or if you have additional information about, or links for, a listed band.

      no known recordings = artists/groups which will not be listed in my forthcoming book, (ca. 2028), FolkLib Index: Wisconsin Discography, unless a recording by them can be found.
