MURRELLS INLET: A Night of Music and Cultural Exploration Awaits!
Hey, music enthusiasts! If you’re looking for a fun night with great tunes and some friendly vibes, look no further than Murrells Inlet. With a 100% chance of rain tonight, it might be the perfect opportunity to cozy up indoors and immerse yourself in the local music scene!
NTRANZE Duo Takes the Stage!
Tonight, from 6-9 p.m., the popular NTRANZE Duo—made up of the charismatic Grady Avery and the ever-cool Mark Ackles—will be performing at Creek Ratz. If you haven’t caught their act before, you’re in for a treat! NTRANZE is well-known on the Grand Strand for bringing the party to life with a range of hits, from old-school R&B to lively Motown classics, as well as modern pop favorites.
Mark Ackles, the dynamic keyboardist, has been with the band since 2006 and is often seen rocking a stylish fedora while belting out tunes. He explained that these duo gigs offer a slightly different flavor than their full band performances, allowing for more standards and Motown magic, but still keeping to that upbeat, dance-inducing spirit.
“We get the people dancing near the end, but depending on the setting, it’s a little more of the Great American Songbook stuff,” Ackles shared. It’s sure to be a night filled with rhythm and joy, so gather your friends and enjoy some fantastic live music!
Upcoming Events You Won’t Want to Miss!
If you’re a fan of karaoke, you can catch Ackles every Thursday at SoCo Wood Fired Pizza in Georgetown. Plus, don’t forget to mark your calendars for November 9, when NTRANZE will be performing at a special benefit event at SoCo Grill. This event supports a clothing and children’s needs drive for families in Asheville—what better way to dance for a cause?
Dive Into Gullah Geechee Culture
But wait, there’s more! If you’re feeling culturally inquisitive, don’t miss out on an enlightening session with author and performer Ron Daise, taking place today at 1 p.m. at Brookgreen Gardens. Join Daise for a participatory presentation on Gullah Geechee culture, where he’ll delve into the rich history, songs, language, and beliefs of this unique community. As a bonus, he’ll be sharing snippets from his novel, “Raptors in the Ricelands,” which paints a vivid picture of life in a fictional Gullah Geechee community.
Admission is free with your Gardens ticket, and this is one experience you won’t want to miss!
Stretch It Out with Vinyasa Yoga

This session, designed for all levels and ages 12 and up, will help you connect your breath with flow. Just bring your mat and some comfortable clothing to enjoy yoga in a serene outdoor setting.
