Modern Polka Music

Can anyone steer me towards some modern Polka music?...when I was growing up, I used to hear many Polka bands here in the US, mostly at weddings, social events etc...most of it was rather stiff, and to me, outdated, as this was the 1960's and I was hearing all the great rock & jazz that was appearing at that time...but, about 15 years ago, I heard a public radio broadcast here in America, and I listened to about 45 minutes of a GREAT modern Polka band, playing in the jazz/fusion style that had developed over the years...unfortunately, I don't remember their name...the band was tenor sax, keyboards, electric bass & drums, and these guys were KILLING it, very intense, driving and all over their respective instruments...anything like this out there now, either in Poland or the US?...there's another Polka thread on the Forum, but the only example there is some 'Euro-disco' Polka ********.

Yeah, I know about Tex-Mex polka, but that is an older style...Just thought there might be a Polish musician out there who was interested.
