A live auction will offer fabulous beach getaways to Aruba, Delray Beach, Sandbridge, and San Francisco.

The Embers are widely considered a musical MARVEL and have laid the groundwork for what has become known as ‘Beach Music’ in the Carolinas, the Virginias, the gulf coast region of North America and every beach in between. A true musical tradition with which many Americans have grown up on, the Embers consider the genre of Beach Music as “music with a memory” and have been creating lasting memories since its inception in 1958. The Embers have solidified their position as a thriving musical entity leaving their mark on listeners for decades.
