2/5ths is rooted in Wisconsin and German Polka. We play many of the songs from the JS Band. We are adding tunes all the time to give our shows a little extra kick. Were expanding our selections to include classic swing tunes and country tunes by Willie Nelson, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, Bob Gibson and more!! Wed love to see you at one of our shows. Check out the Events page to see where well be next.
Why 2/5ths??? We get a lot of questions asking why we call ourselves 2/5ths Party Band. Here's the answer: The very first engagement of what would become the 2/5ths Party Band was Tom and Patti duo for the 60th wedding anniversary of George and Irene Simon of DePere. The Jerry Schneider Band was comprised of 5 members our first performance was 2 of the 5. Since, we've grown it to 4 members, remaining the 2/5ths Party Band, a continuing tribute to Jerry Schneider and the role he played in getting us all to perform together. Thanks Dad!!
