Consider these top 5 locations for catching a live musical performance on the Grand Strand:

House of Blues — The premier live-music venue at North Myrtle Beach shopping/dining/ entertainment hot spot Barefoot Landing, this Mississippi Delta juke-joint inspired music hall hosts a regular schedule of national touring acts. The 59,000-square-foot venue sets the mood with a unique collection of contemporary folk art decorating its spaces, and when all that rocking gets you and your crew hungry, Southern staples such as Shrimp & Grits, Jambalaya and Baby Back Ribs can be found on the dining menu. The HoB’s summer 2018 concert lineup includes Collective Soul, Biz Markie, Yacht Rock Revue, Jimmy Eat World, Drive-By Truckers and more. Local acts are also regularly featured on the venue’s outdoor deck. For more info, visit houseofblues.com.

Bourbon Street — Located next to Pine Lakes Country Club in Myrtle Beach, this North Kings Highway bar & grill/music venue is a favorite among music-loving locals. Offering a smoke-free atmosphere and serving a menu of sandwiches, tacos, quesadillas, and appetizers until late in the evening, acts on Bourbon Street’s summer lineup include The Travelin’ Kine, the Brad Long Band and Little Bird.

The Boathouse — Boasting “the Best Backyard in Town,” this bar & grill located on the Intracoastal Waterway just off Highway 501 in Myrtle Beach is known for its free Sunday Concert Series regularly featuring “up and coming” country artists from across the region and nation, as well as rock acts, tribute bands and more. The Boathouse also offers an extensive menu highlighted by sandwiches, seafood, surf & turf items, and burgers.

When hunger strikes, the kitchen can serve up an extensive menu of burgers, wings, appetizers and other bar food. To learn more, visit thebowery.com.
