The Embers

Since 1958, the Embers have been synonymous with South Carolina’s ever-popular Beach Music genre, entertaining crowds with classic hits like “Come Back Baby” and “Gonna Love You.”

The band boasts numerous albums, singles, and inductions into the SC Beach Music Hall of Fame and the SC Rhythm and Blues Hall of Fame.

Center Theater’s Re-Emergence

Since 1936, the historic moving-picture theater has been a community centerpiece, entertaining crowds with films, live performances, and various local events. Three years ago, Center Theater embarked on a transformational restoration project, preparing the timeless venue for a new era of movies, musicals, concerts, comedy shows, and more.

Ticketed events like Shagging with The Embers work in conjunction with other fundraising activities to complete critical renovations like seating and concessions, add new dressing rooms to the theater’s footprint, and book popular performers to enhance our local economy and quality of life.

For more information on how you can support the re-emergence project, contact Kim Bowman at kim@khopecreative.com.
