Adolph Hofner: A Texas Polka News Tribute

The Pearl Stable Summer Dance Hall Series featuring the New Pearl Wranglers playing tunes from Texas Western Swing pioneer Adolph Hofner. This event was a tribute by Texas Polka News. Hofner may best be remembered for writing the dance hall standard "Cotton-Eyed Joe." Filmed Aug. 17, 2016 From Wikipedia: "Hofner was born into a family of Czech-German origin. He grew up listening to Czech and Hawaiian music. When he was ten years old his family moved to San Antonio. He and his younger brother Emil and Simon Garcia formed the Hawaiian Serenaders and performed locally. Influenced by Milton Brown and Bob Wills, Hofner became a singer in a band that played what was later called Western swing, a combination of country music and jazz. He kept his day job as a mechanic while performing at night in clubs in San Antonio."
