Brass Transit Comes to The Orleans Showroom This Weekend

Celebrated tribute band Brass Transit will bring the hits of the band Chicago to The Orleans Showroom this weekend, Aug. 29 and 30.

Brass Transit's show includes hits from the legendary band Chicago's golden age (1969-1976), including "Does Anybody Know What Time It Is," "Saturday in the Park" and "25 or 6 to 4." With world-class horn and rocking rhythm sections and vocals stacked sky-high, Brass Transit transports audiences to the freewheeling days of the '70s.
