The Goose Island Ramblers of Madison, Wisconsin, epitomized the polkabilly sound with their wild mixture of Norwegian fiddle tunes, Irish jigs, Slovenian polkas, Swiss yodels, old time hillbilly songs, \"Scandihoovian\" and \"Dutchman\" dialect ditties, frost-bitten Hawaiian m arches, and novelty numbers on the electric toilet plunger. The Ramblers recorded on Cuca, one of many Upper Midwestern labels— including Pfau, Pleasant Peasant, Polkaland, and Soma— that emerged in the post-World War II era and catered to local hillbilly/polka fusions.
