The Beach Shack,Cocoa Beach,Florida.

Every Thursday night 8-12 midnight,featuring The Spacecoast Playboys as your host band.

The Space Coast Playboys are a talented group of blues players from all over the country who have settled in Central Florida. They cover the waterfront on the blues shore with a five piece including Mark Korpi on guitar and vocals (with a long career backing many national blues players such as Gary Primich, Evan John & The H-Bombs, Danny Gatton), Guitar Lin Korpi on guitar and vocals (3 years as weekly performer at the world famous Antones in Austin Texas, opened for Jimmy Vaughn, Son Seals and Gatemouth Brown), Scott Mayo on bass and vocals, Dennis Bram on sax and vocals (formerly a fixture in the New York City blues scene, (Boz Scaggs, The Pointer Sisters. All five sing and have more than 125 years of music experience among them. They lay down some blues, swing, and funky 'Nawlins style music, rockabilly and good ol’ rock n' roll--what would you expect from such a diverse set of professional musicians?

Blues Jams:
Tuesdays 8pm
Wednesdays 8pm
Thursdays 8pm
Sundays 5pm

REVIEW:
I was on business and enjoyed 3 different nights sitting in. Doc Williamson runs things nicely (Piano & Vocals) and there will be a decent support group. It was certainly harp friendly but while the Fender Excelsior as the harp amp option was capable for the stage it was completely lost in the room (micing it not really an option). I plugged a 57 straight to the PA, it worked. This would be a perfect pedal-PA venue -your own amp isn't the plan. The various players sitting in were very good.
Recommended.
