Die Lustigen Almdudler Die Lustigen Almdudler is a 4 piece band from Rochester, New York, that specializes in German/Austrian music. We play both the traditional and the modern songs. Well known throughout Western and Central New York, Die Lustigen Almdudler also features Schuhplattling (folk dancing in the Bavarian tradition), cow bell ringing, and skits. Die Lustigen Almdudler have thrilled audiences wherever they play with their infectious music and variety of entertainment. We have often been asked, because of our authentic style, "Where in Germany (or Austria) is your band from?"... a very high compliment indeed!
