May 3rd: Beach Music to fill Hartsville’s Byerly Park


Beach music lovers will get a chance to pull out their dancing shoes and shag the night away as the Beach Music Festival returns to Byerly Park on Saturday, May 3.

From 1 to 9 p.m., bands such as Band of Oz, Jim Quick & Coastline and Pale Horse will perform on an outdoor stage. This year’s festival is sponsored by the City of Hartsville, J.

Closing out the evening will be Jim Quick and Coastline, whose frontman is a nine-time winner of the Carolina Music Awards Entertainer of the Year Award.

The event will also feature local deejay Dan E. Lockemy.

“With major acts featuring veteran entertainers on the schedule, this year’s festival will be bigger and better than ever,” said City of Hartsville Parks and Leisure Services Director Phil Gardner. “We’re carrying on a decades-old Hartsville tradition of concert festivals, and this event is sure to leave no fan of Carolina beach music disappointed.”
