The Ampol Aires

Band,
Folk
A.k.a. Ampol Aires Orchestra The New Ampol Aires

Way back in the early 1950's there was a very popular band called the Eddie Zima And His Orchestra which was comprised of Eddie Zima, concertina, Andy Dziagwa (Day), trumpet, and Roman Truskolaski (Travers), clarinet and sax, Frank Barwig, piano and Rudy Sienkowski, drums. The boys had their parting of the ways with Eddie Zima in 1954 and thus the Ampol Aires were born. Tom Kula, concertina, clarinet and sax, was added to the group to make the band complete. Dick Ziembicki (Zimber) joined the group a couple of years later.. For those who wonder how the name "Ampol Aires" came about, the Am in Ampol Aires stands for American, and the pol stands for Polish, the Aires simply stands for exactly what it means, aires or melodies.
