Outer Banks Sounds, a collaboration between the The Dare County Arts Council and 99.1 The Sound, will kick off its second season on Thursday, Nov. 15 at Kelly?s Restaurant and Tavern from 7 to 10 p.m.
Outer Banks Sounds is a live performance and CD compilation series that features the best local Outer Banks songwriters and performers.
The Nov. 15 event will feature Rick Agudelo from Kill Devil Hills, Low Pressure from Nags Head and Corolla-based songwriter Andy Begina.
All proceeds from sales of the Outer Banks Sounds CD will benefit the Community Music School.
The school is a Dare County Arts Council initiative that brings quality, affordable music instruction to financially disadvantaged children in Dare County.
Subsequent showcases will be held every third Thursday through May 2013 at Kelly?s.
At the end of the first season of Outer Banks Sounds, a song from each participating artist was included on the inaugural Outer Banks Sounds CD recording.
The first Outer Banks Sounds CD is currently available at the Dare County Arts Council gallery, Silver Bonsai, Radio Shack, Birthday Suits and Cloud Nine.
The second Outer Banks Sound recording is scheduled for release in the fall of 2013.
99.1 The Sound supports Outer Banks Sounds through on-air performances from local artists on Acoustic Lunch and radio promotion for both the live performances and the CD.
