Eddie Stamphl developed a unique Cleveland- Style Polka sound leading his own orchestra
for over twenty-five years, while adding a touch of show business with his patented
"Flying Accordion" maneuver. A regular with his band on the "Polka Varieties," "Style
Crest," and "Old Dutch Polka Revue" II television shows and on polka tours to the
Poconos, Europe, and the Caribbean, Eddie also played and recorded with Waiter Ostanek,
Chester Budny, Cecilia Dolgan, and Georgie Cook during his illustrious Cleveland-Style
career. An unselfish advocate for Cleveland- Style Polkas, Eddie was a three-time
president of the Pol-Kats Social Club and often gave of his time and talents at nursing
homes, children's homes, and other charitable events. Moving to Las Vegas, Eddie
curtailed his playing to one regular club date, jam sessions, and occasional Polkafests.
