Queerguru’s latest love the Bavarian Polka Band THE HEIMATDAMISCH and their offbeat take on mega pop and rock hits

 

 

Queerguru’s music editor  Allison Ananis went to Europe for her summer hols and also to look for some new sounds.  Part of the time she stayed in a Schloss (well, that’s what we think she said) where she made a fabulous discovery.  The German Polka Band The Heimatdamisch may be new to us BUT in their homeland they are HUGE.  The best way to describe them is as a Bavarian rock band of the New Folk music genre. What they perform are internationally known pop and rock music hits in Oberkrainer style (you’ll need to look that up) with their take on songs from AC/DC , Guns n’ RosesBritney SpearsLady Gaga ,  Nena ,  Eurythmics ,  The White Stripes etc.

Lest you think they are just a novelty, then you should know the video that Allison has chosen Guns n’ Roses’s Sweet Child of Mine has had 9.1 million views!
