​Based in Toledo, Ohio. Founded in 1988 by Jeff Mleczko, DynaBrass is a Polish-American Polka Band. From the very beginning, DynaBrass made an impact on the polka industry with its recordings “Sneak Preview”, “The Dream Loves On” and “In the Heat of the Night”. The albums featured several Jeff Mleczko originals and established the unique DynaBrass sound. DynaBrass performed throughout the USA and Canada until taking a Hiatus in 1996. 

After several years of performing with Toledo Polkamotion (TPM), Jeff Mleczko and several past members reunited DynaBrass in 2004. The band immediately hit it big with the release of the “Unfinished Business” album and received several United States Polka Association (USPA) awards.

DynaBrass continued to make it's mark with the release of the live album “Bay City Nights” in 2008. Recorded live at St. Stan’s Polish Festival in Bay City, MI the album captured the essence of DynaBrass. Comprised of a collection of DynaBrass favorites and a new anthem in the title cut “Bay City Nights” which is still one of the most requested songs on the playlist.

DynaBrass is one of the most acclaimed Polish-American Polka Bands in the USA over the last several years.  Since 2016, DynaBrass has received or been nominated for twenty-two (22) Polka Music Awards from the International Polka Association (IPA) and the United States Polka Association (USPA).
