"Music Notes: A Necessary CD for Locals"

"...the hardest working band on the Grand Strand..."

"This band knows how to energize a dance crowd..."

"Known for its danceable and well-excecuted cover tunes, the band also has a creative song-writing bent..." - Weekly Surge


"Necessary Progress"

"The Necessary Band is taking a necessary step in its career"

"The Necessary Band has een a staple on the Myrtle Beach music scene for years."

"There's a lot of talent here. There's rock, there's jazz, there's soul."

"Just be ready to have a good time!" - The Sun News


"I Gotta Go Where It's Warm"

The Necessary Band’s music has a unique style blended from Motown, Latin, and Caribbean Percussion intertwined with the harmonies and guitar style of the Delta Blues, and classic rock legends including the Allman Brother, Beatles, and Doobie Brothers. The Necessary Band has established themselves as one of the elite bands on the east coast. - Margaritaville


"Give the Gift of Local Music"

Title: “Start to Back – Front to Finish”


Artist: The Necessary Band


Availability: at all of their live shows, excluding JimmyBuffett's Margaritaville, www.thenecessaryband.com, www.CDbaby.net


Digital: www.digstation.com


Price: $15


Sound: Going from the soulful funk to honky tonk rock ‘n’ roll, and settling down at a general classic rock sound, these guys should make any Wave 104 listener happy. The CD has a nice slick production, and at times very sax heavy, lending nods toward the yacht-rock movement. At some moments, there are long-winded blues jams that paint a picture of being at a small smokey bar in the city (probably not the city of Myrtle Beach). Fans of The Rolling Stones will love the second track, “Little Mama Rocks.” This CD is also recommended for fans of Steely Dan, Kool and The Gang, and The Eagles. This band can be found playing at a number of bars up and down the Strand on just about any given night.
