Go Transatlantic with The Claptomaniacs

There’s Oz Rock … but does that mean there’s Brit Rock … or even Yank Rock? Then again, maybe the American version is known as Yacht Rock these days.

Whatever the case, The Claptomaniacs specialise in covering the latter, mainly from the magic years of the 70s and 80s era – and the five-piece band will be knocking them out at Tewantin Noosa RSL this Saturday, December 13, from 8pm.

From the US the band will play the likes of the Doobie Brothers’ Take Me in your Arms, Steely Dan’s Do it Again and Santana’s Evil Ways, and so many more.

And Brit hits to be played will include Joe Cocker’s Leave your hat on, Robert Palmer’s Simply Irresistible, and yes, even the Hollies ever-popular Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress.

They’ll even do late 80s hits from that great half-Brit, half-American band The Travelling Wilburys.

It’s an almost-100% dance set, so come on down to the RSL for an extensive meal menu, a range of drinks – and a good time on the dance floor!
