From dairy farm to world stage, Jimmy Voegeli and The Jimmys prove that great music—and great community—start close to home.

There’s a certain rhythm to life in southern Wisconsin. It hums in the fields, echoes through the hills, and on most weekends, you can feel it coming from Ohana Kitchen (formerly Tofflers Pub & Grill) in downtown New Glarus. It’s here that The Jimmys—one of Wisconsin’s most decorated and beloved bands—regularly turn a cozy bar into a blues-filled revival. And at the heart of it all is frontman Jimmy Voegeli: dairy farmer by day, keyboard virtuoso by night.
