Summer is here, and the Flat Rock Playhouse Downtown is ready to celebrate by transporting the beach to the mountains with the upcoming Music on the Rock concert “Carolina Shag.” Celebrating the musical phenomenon that developed in the early 1950s on the Carolina coast, “Carolina Shag” features upbeat beach music from artists such as The Embers, The Tams, Chairmen of the Board and The Drifters. “Carolina Shag,” a genre sometimes known as the “swing of the South,” promises all the lighthearted fun of a lively summer night at the beach. Audiences can expect to join in the party and dance the night away with a “one-and-two” to hits including “Carolina Girls,” “My Girl,” “My Guy,” “Under the Boardwalk,” “Be Young Be Foolish Be Happy” and “I Love Beach Music.”
