Music of Wisconsin
Wisconsin was settled largely by European immigrants in the late 19th century. This immigration led to the popularization of galops, schottisches, waltzes, and, especially, polkas. Classical composers and conductors from Wisconsin include Hans Balatka, Hugo Kaun, Eugene Luening, Theodore Steinmetz and Sarge Boyd. The Steve Miller Band, with Madison's Steve Miller, had 3 #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 from 1973–82, including "The Joker." The Chordettes, from Sheboygan, had a #1 hit in the US with "Mr. Sandman" in 1954.
