Description

This week we'll explore the untold history of the Haughville Slickers, a Slovenian polka band that was based in the westside Indianapolis neighborhood of Haughville. The Haughville Slickers were founded in 1947, and played around Indianapolis until the late 1960s, providing an important service to Indy's large Slovenian population by performing regularly at weddings and cultural events.
