GREER, S.C. —The Carolina Coast Band, an iconic beach music band, will perform music for listening and/or dancing in Greer’s monthly Tunes in the Park outdoor concert series from 6 to 9 p.m. June 15 in the amphitheater at Greer City Park, 301 E. Poinsett St., here.

“The Carolina Coast Band evolved in 2013 from the efforts of three former members of the Out-Of-Towners Band, as well as other well-known regional beach music bands from the Upstate of South Carolina,” a CCB press release noted.  

“The band delivers a combined 90 years of experience in beach, Motown, R&B and oldies music.... 

“Their popularity continues to grow as they span the East Coast of the U.S. performing and promoting Carolina beach music, rhythm and blues, and party music. 

“The band is a member of the Carolina Beach Music Association. The band and several of its members have won — or have been nominated for — several awards by the association during the past several years, joining the ranks of the many great beach music bands in their industry.

“The TaxSlayer Gator Bowl, a nationally televised New Year’s Day College Football Game in Jacksonville, Florida, featured the Carolina Coast Band for their 2014 New Year’s Eve Party during pre-game activities,” a promotion concluded.

During band breaks, the Greer Idol and Idol Jr. competition will be held. 

Attendees are urged to bring lawnchairs and/or blankets. Admission is free.
