When he was just 14, Joey Johnson started touring with America’s Polka King, Frankie Yankovic. Joey has carried on the tradition with his own polka band, and in this episode of Composer Quest, he shares everything he knows about accordions and polka. Joey’s original tunes have been featured in a number of commercials and TV, and we talk about the pros and cons of being published in a production music library.
