"...Copper Box makes this easy (to listen to the accordion).  Hailing from Oshkosh, this group features Danny Jerabek, a true accordion virtuoso who translates the vivid physicality of the instrument into an idiomatic style that includes elements of rock, Zydeco, blues and (natch) polka.

His wife, Michelle Jerabek, sings with him and also plays flute, guitar and sax.  With bassist Kevin Junemann and drummer Jason Van Ryzin, they swing from originals to unusual covers-including a Pink Floyd polka-with style and humor.

Copper Box's latest album is "Need a Little Squeezin' " -an agreeable sentiment.

Just got done with out 2nd show in Hartford, WI on Saturday and we stopped into Kwik Trip to get Danny some coffee & donuts after a hard days work (Need Energy...running low). We pulled up to a gas pump. There was hardly anybody there at 1:30am and really no good place to park an extended van & trailer. Jason was bummed because there were no hot dogs on the rollers and came out empty handed in disbelief. We got back in the van and headed out on Hwy 60 only to be stopped by a cop a few seconds more »

For all you baseball fans out there. The Timber Rattlers HOME game in Appleton, WI will be THIS Friday, July 7th and Danny Jerabek will be playing the National Anthem before the game. Game time is 7:05pm. Play ball!

Shaggy has been chosen to take over the Winneconne High School Band Teaching position. He has worked very hard through college keeping his grades up, and gigging with Copper Box. With taking a teaching position, means a lot of Friday night Football and Basketball games, and also marching the band in parades. So, Shaggy is good, but he can't be in two places at one time. We will miss him, but you can see him around at a gig once in awhile, as he may be helping out with mixing sound, and/or playing some Sousaphone. Also, maybe we'll have his more »

We've been having some interesting days these past few weeks. We broke down on our way to New Glarus a few weeks ago. So we switched into our dad's van...which also started giving off a burning smelly sensation as we were 2 miles down the road. We had our van in the shop for major surgery for a week and a half. (Had to borrow a van from some GREAT friends of ours.) Finally got it back...used it for 2 days and we get to our job in Oshkosh (thank God it was Oshkosh and close to home!) and this more »

The Northwestern - July 2004

Five decades of rock in Oshkosh and beyond:

Fifty years ago 19-year-old Elvis Presley walked into Sun Records in Memphis and recorded a rhythm and blues song written by Arthur Crudup.

"That's Alright Mama," not only went on to launch the career of the man who would be "The King" but is also being comemorated as the birth of the musical genre known as rock'n'roll...

Wisconsin has contributed such rock legends as Les Paul, Steve Miller and Jerry Harrison. Even Oshkosh has left its mark on rock more »
