notes

Terry Palasz (“palace”) is a singer-actress most recently known around the country for her uproarious and heartwarming one-woman show, “The Polish Diva from Milwaukee.” She now introduces her first polka CD The Polish Diva’s Polka Party, which is already receiving rave reviews for Terry’s powerful vocals, great team of musicians (including accordionist, arranger and producer Toby Hanson) and diverse polka styles.

Ms. Palasz, with her pleasing and lusty soprano, sings polka favorites from around the country with particular focus on old-style Polish tunes. She also gives her special twist to vintage pop tunes such as “Cuanto Le Gusta” and “Dominique.”

Born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Polish and English parents, Terry was equally influenced by community polka dances and social teas, giving her a unique blend of elegance and raucousness in her performances.

From polka lovers to musical esoterics, The Polish Diva’s Polka Party will appeal to anyone in need of a pure pick me up. Terry is supported by a full polka band and backup singers and the CD also includes six pages of liner notes.

    Ms. Palasz has a superb voice, her accompaniment was excellent also. her choice of music was varied and enjoyable. I particularly enjoyed some of the songs since my father (deceased) used to sing them. And that brings back some heart warming memories.
