Meet BBGB – The Pacific Northwest’s Ultimate Oktoberfest Party Band!

If you're looking to crank your Oktoberfest celebration up to eleven, BBGB is your band. Based in the Seattle area, BBGB has earned its reputation as the region’s premier Oktoberfest entertainment experience, combining first-class musicianship with interactive antics and a playlist that swings from Bavaria to Bourbon Street and back again.

This isn’t your Opa’s polka band—BBGB puts the “party” in “party band” with a high-energy mix of German traditional tunes, Schlager hits, waltzes and polkas, and then throws in some American party rock, R&B (yes, they’ll hit you with some Blues Brothers), and their signature “Fractured Rock” twists. Ever heard AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck” as a polka? With BBGB, you will—and you’ll be shouting "Prost!" while you do it.

Interactive. Unpredictable. Absolutely Unforgettable.

BBGB doesn’t just play music—they put on a show. From Bavarian pole dancing contests to Chicken Dance championships, they love pulling the crowd into the action. Don’t be surprised if you or your guests are handed a prop, pulled onstage, or honored as an official member of the band for the night. Their humor, charm, and high-octane energy make every event unique and wildly entertaining.

World-Class Musicianship, Local Legends

Behind the mayhem is a seriously talented group of professional musicians:

• Greg Perry – Accordion (and chief instigator)
• Gary Beyer & Fritz Whitney – Saxophones (double the brass, double the fun)
• Larry Hays – Guitar (shredding riffs and steins alike)
• Chris James – Bass Guitar (holding down the groove)

Every member brings decades of experience performing everything from rock to polka and back again.
