All of a sudden it seemed just like a new world was created they struck up a HOT polka , a waltz, then a foxtrot, a Kolomayka , the butterfly, the chuban , then polkas and more polkas until you literally saw the dust rising off the floor.

When it comes to Ukrainian music the Ukrainian Oldtimers are as close to becoming an institution as a group of musicians can get. Formed around the musical couple Ness and Linda Shydlowsky, the Ukrainian Old Timers are a standard fixture across Canada’s Ukrainian Festival circuit. The Ukrainian Oldtimers have recorded 20 albums and are currently working on their next.
The Oldtimers evoke the festive spirit of a traditional Ukrainian celebration with dances like the polka, kolomeyka, butterfly, waltz, chuban, and foxtrot. Whether dancing along or simply listening you cannot ignore the happy infectious music of the Old Timers. They are keeping the music alive and well and also nurturing the heart and soul of Ukrainian culture in Canada.
In 1999 the Ukrainian Oldtimers fulfilled a lifelong dream when they toured the Ukraine. They were proudly returning music to the Old Country that had been brought to Canada by Ukrainian Homesteaders a century earlier.
Today the Ukrainian Oldtimers are as busy as ever touring across Canada appearing at Ukrainian festivals in Vegreville, Gardenton, Dryden, and Dauphin. At weddings and special events throughout the year; wherever people are celebrating life in the Ukrainian spirit the Ukrainian Oldtimers will be there.
