This is the continuing legacy of the
Rich Bobinski Orchestra.Before Rich’s passing in March of 2001, he requested
that if anything happened to him, we would carry on with the band. As of
March 2001 the band has carried on with his request.
We have played many polka venues and private engagements in the past 9 years
throughout Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Massachusetts,
Pennsylvania and
Missouri .
We have released a CD entitled
Marty Swiatek
& RBO - "THE LEGACY CONTINUES” which is dedicated to Rich.
We are a group of talented and versatile musicians who have bonded together
like family. The camaraderie is apparent on stage. We have a polka style
that keeps the fans coming back for more. And as long as we keep playing
Rich’s music, he will always be with us on stage.
