Welcome to Polka Doll!

My name is Linda Chesky Fernandes and I am the owner of Polka Doll. My father, Larry Chesky, dedicated his life to the polka music industry. For over 50 years, he made what I view as a very significant contribution. During that span of time, his father, my grandfather, Poppa Joe Chesky and my grandmother Wanda, started a record company called Rex Records when my father began his career in the music industry at the age of 14. Polka music and polish culture have always had a place in the Chesky family and I am grateful that I have the opportunity to carry on the legacy that was started by my grandparents and carried on by my father.

I hope that you enjoy the selection of products that you find on this website. If you need assistance or have comments or questions, please feel free to contact me.

I am honored that I have been afforded this opportunity to promote polka music and hope that through this venture I can expose a wide range of Polish-Americans to our joint heritage. Polish music and traditions can provide a sense of balance and community and I look forward to promoting our culture through this endeavor.

Polkatively yours,

Linda Chesky Fernandes
