KTAE-AM 1260 in Taylor has the enviable distinction of playing the most polka music of any station you can pick up in Austin: seven-and-a-half hours every week (11am-noon Monday-Saturday and 1-2pm Sunday). Since 1981, from 8:30-8am on Saturday, Taylor accordionist and Czech Danny Drozd breaks out his squeezebox to play polkas, waltzes, country, swing - whatever the people like to hear. Drozd proudly carries on a family musical legacy and breathes life into an instrument rarely heard on radio.
