The Litt’l Fishermen first
performed for a dance on New Years Eve, 1969. Since then the band
has been on three tours and played in Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa,
Minnesota, and of course, Texas. The band has made eight recordings
in addition to the four Polka Band Leaders recordings, and has a one-hour
video tape. Playing with the present band are three members who
played at the New Years Eve “Opening Night” and over half of the
band have been members for at least 30 years. The band plays in
two configurations: as a 9 piece “polka band” featuring 3
brass, 3 sax/clarinet, and accordion, tuba, and drums; and as a 10 piece
“ballroom dance band” with 3 brass, 4 sax/clarinet, keyboard, acoustic
bass, and drums.
