Tanunda Town Band is  also arguably one of Australia’s premier oom-pah bands. Oom-pah is a genre of music originating from Europe, and is inextricably linked to Germany, particularly Bavaria. Heavy on the tuba, oom-pah is often associated with Volkstumlich Musik and polkas, and most notably Oktoberfest.

​

Drawing from the rich traditional German heritage of the Barossa Valley, the band includes players from across Australia and Europe.

​

During October the band can be found playing at Oktoberfest events, belting out classics such as the Beer-Barrel Polka, along with polka style arrangements of more contemporary artists such as Lady Gaga and Tom Jones – not your traditional Volksmusik performances!

Tanunda Town Band can be booked to play at your Oktoberfest, German themed, corporate or private event.  JA JA JA!!!!!
