" To see and hear the Bavarians is a genuinely entertaining musical experience that is not soon forgotten."

Jimmy Bavarians

Available as either a small 3-4 piece strolling ensemble, or as a full band, Jimmy Bavarians is Chicago’s number one oompah band. The Musicians are among Chicagoland's best and are regulars. So-called "pick-up" musicians are never used.

In 1998, they appeared for the second time on the "Taste of Chicago" Taste Stage.

Their style ranges from old oompah favorites to many of the newest medleys brought over directly from Munich and include even some original songs in both English and German. The family-orientated band features instrumentalists, as well as, both male and female vocalists. Traditional in instrumentation and colorful in authentic Lederhosen outfits, Jimmy’s Bavarians offer the full spectrum of old as well as new carnival favorites.

Their credentials include : the Association of Professional Orchestra Leaders, Chicago Federation of Musicians , the Joliet Federation of Musicians, D.A.N.K. (German- American National Congress) and the Illinois Arts Council Arts tour.
