A Bogan Bavarian Oompah-Ty
A Bogan Bavarian Oompah-Ty! When Bavarian Folk meets Aussie Rock!
A Bogan Bavarian Oompah-ty is a fun music show featuring Australian rock and pop songs played in a German oompah style. The performers wear lederhosen, play brass instruments and the songs are arranged in such a way which is both recognisable and tongue-in-cheek. The songs are linked with funny stories and audience participation is encouraged. It is just fun for the sake of fun.
