Again, we have our new guy Bob... more important than getting him up to speed on our music is seeing how much of our shenanigans he can deal with. #newguy #polkaband #bandrehearsal #thisiscle @bob__young #drummer @drums #drumming

Well... we could do a fancy post about the new guy we’re working with, introducing him and telling ya all sorts of stuff about him... that sounds like a lot of work though. Instead, we’re just gonna post a series of pranks and random stuff we pull on this guy. We’ll see what happens...Here’s Bob, everybody.

Nothing can stop the polka! With two new kiddos at home, that means two new mouths to feed for the Jake. What better way to bring home the bread then going out and playing some polkas in the accordion. Today’s gig, at Lantern Of Madison, features our buddy Bob Young on drums... hopefully you’ll be seeing more of him.... his set is the right color for the job, aye? CPB in the house... #accordion #music #musicians #gigs #drums #drummer #accordionist #accordionplayer #polkamusic #polkaband

Happy New Year one and all..... Well, it’s official- Luke Julian Kouwe and Benjamin George Kouwe were born one week ago on Friday December 27th! Luke being the smaller and firstborn at 6lbs and 7 ounces . Benjamin is our big boy, weighting in at 8 lbs. The two middle names are from grandpas on either side! These dual bundles of joy are a handful!!! (Just like their old man) Luke and Benjamin enjoy napping, being held, eating... and screaming in tandem at 3am ... its very loud. We are excited to share this news with our polka family, all of you who have made this band (and all of us in it) a part of your lives. The support, prayers, and enthusiasm that Emily and I (Jake) have gotten from everyone through this pregnancy has been huge! We are so happy to be able to share all that love with the two baby brothers! What an amazing world of people that they are going to grow up around and experience! And so here are the pictures and the “official” announcement! The twins are here and we’re happy to introduce them! Thanks for all the love, - Emily, Jake, Luke and Benji
