Over 25 years in the making, Jim Quick & Coastline, like their namesake the Atlantic Coastline Railroad, have been traveling the “tracks” of the southeast, and connecting with the hearts of loyal “Coastline Crazies.” Pulling from the threads of Soul, Blues, R&B, and Americana, Jim Quick & Coastline weave together their own genre of music known as Swamp Soul. Delivered with precision by front man Jim Quick and his band, this group captures the true, honest spirit of traditions born and bred in the small southern towns of America.
The band currently maintains an average of 250 tour dates per year, with an ever-growing fan base that is as diverse as the music of the band itself.
Assembling some of the top musical acts in our area, Rockin’ the Forest features a variety of popular beach music and cover bands that play beach music and rock and roll covers from classic to modern rock, with a little funk and original music thrown in. In addition to great music, each Rockin’ the Forest concert includes a cash bar serving beer and wine.
The series concludes March 27 with The Magnificents.
Designed to offer local audiences first rate performances that previously required area residents to travel to Raleigh, Chapel Hill or Durham, each Rockin’ the Forest concert takes place inside the intimate comfort of the Wake Forest Renaissance Centre.
