 CD Baby: POLKA COUNTRY MUSICIANS: Whoop Up ! - from jaga
The Polka Country Musicians (the PCM) were originally formed in 1977, under the leadership of Rich Dombrowski.
With the release of some of their recordings from about 1989 on, the PCM turned a major corner, combining songs of old and the standard polka instrumentation for their style, along with a new country influenced flair, featuring the two violins.
Interest in hearing the Polka Country Musicians perform again was rekindled by the members of the band, as well as the many fans they had established along the way before their hiatus.
