Southern Soul, OD Resort Bring
Live Entertainment to North Myrtle Beach 
The Southern Soul Network and its sponsors have just the right mix of Carolina Beach entertainment to put a sparkle on Ocean Drive for July 4th.
Multi-CBMA nominee Pam Russell and Shaggie Maggie will perform hits like "Green River" and "Whatsa Matter Baby" - plus plenty of other great classics -this Friday night at OD Resort's Spanish Galleon. Showtime is 7:30pm.
Joining the band onstage will be special guest Paul Craver, known for producing a string of tumes like "Mr. Beach," "Emperor of My Baby's Heart" and most recently "Fool for You", that have become staples of the Carolina Beach Music industry.
If you're there, expect to hear Russell and Craver team up for some of their well-known duets as a bonus.
The July 4th performance marks the latest in the 2008 line-up of Southern Soul's effort to provide a live Carolina Beach Music venue to fans in the North Myrtle Beach area. |
