What is Beach Music?

Musical trends come and go, but for more than fifty years, Beach Music has been as steady as the Atlantic Ocean's flow to its southeastern beachfronts.

No matter where you live in the world, you hear beach music and you're back home, spending summers with the sunroof open cruising, the smell of sea and suntan oil in the breeze, shell necklaces, halter tops and shorts. Beach music is HOME and your home for great Beach Music is here at 1340 The Boardwalk.

According to Beach Music Association International, Beach Music is original style American Rhythm & Blues and Rock & Roll that always maintained its popularity in both Carolinas as popular music tastes changed elsewhere.

Beach Music is The Dominoes, The Chairmen of the Board, Jackie Wilson, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Fantastic Shakers, Band of Oz, Catalinas, Entertainers, Bill Deal & The Rhondels, Embers, Drifters, Maurice Williams & The Zodiacs, AND MORE.
