Back Room Boys to return to Copper Island Beach Club Nov. 27

HANCOCK -- The Copper Island Beach Club, at the bottom of Tezcuco St. on the Hancock Waterfront, is bringing in the Back Room Boys again from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. tomorrow, Saturday, Nov 27.

"Come on out and dance away the extra calories from all those pumpkin and pecan pies," says Oren Tikkanen. "The BRB play swing, old-time jazz, blues, perhaps a polka and a waltz, and sometimes a tango -- all with a good-time, 'Big Easy' attitude. Loud enough for dancing and listening, but soft enough that conversation is possible."

The Back Room Boys are Bob Norden -- trombone and vocals; John Munson -- piano, sax, and clarinet; and Oren Tikkanen -- six-string banjo, guitar, and vocals.

Put the Mardi Gras spirit into your Thanksgiving weekend. It sure is fun to dance on a nice wooden floor.
