Stan Boreson, “King of Scandinavian Humor” and veteran Northwest entertainer is celebrating his 55th year in show business this year. A successful entertainer from the onset, Stan appeared for 18 years on several Seattle Television Shows including his longest running and most successful “Kings Kiubbouse.”

Stan is a native of Everett, Washington and a University of Washington graduate. He was invited to participate in his first local television show called “Campus Capers”, featuring University Students. His success on “Capers” led him to his second television show with local musician, Art Barduhn, and they called their show “Two B’s At The Keys.” Recognizing his talents as well as his humor, the Stations Program Director created a daily afternoon children’s program for him called “Kings Klubhouse”. The success of the show won him many awards including the National “Children’s Entertainer Award” awarded annually by the Dell Publishing Company.

Along with his accordion and “Songs His Uncle Torvald Taught Him”, Stan tickles the funny bone of audiences of all ages wherever he appears. On a dare, he began doing Scandinavian Dialect Songs by transforming popular American Songs into humorous Norwegian and Swedish renditions. Over the years, his songs proved so successful that he has made numerous recordings and currently has 15 cassettes, 12 CD’s and 2 Videos of his Klubhouse Shows on the market. His latest album is entitled, “Laughing It Up With Stan Boreson” and contains some of his most requested songs. Included in this album are such gems as, “I Lobster But Never Flounder”, “Cell Phone Yakitty Yak” and “Rusty Chevrolet”. However, audiences remember him the most for his Christmas Songs which are now featured on two cassettes and CD’s, “Stan Boreson Fractures Christmas” and “Aye Yust Go Nuts At Christmas”.

Although Stan likes being at home with his family, he still enjoys traveling and performing at festivals and celebrations throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. Some of his more memorable appearances have been the Norsk Hostfest in Minot, North Dakota, Scandinavian/American Night in East Meadow, New York, Little Norway Festival in Petersburg, Alaska and for King Olav V of Norway (at his request).

When he is not performing, Stan and his wife Barbara conduct tours throughout the United States, Canada and Europe. Their tours have taken them to such destinations as the Canadian Rockies, Nashville, Branson and Nova Scotia, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, France, England and Ireland. Of course he brings his accordion along for a good old fashioned sing-along!
