Band History
The Band of Oz is one of the most successful groups in the Southeast, and continues to get the very best reviews from the top people in the entertainment business.  The band now features a full horn section to total a dynamic eight-member group.  Formed in 1967 as a part-time band playing fraternity parties and high school proms all over the South.  In 1977 the band went on the road full time.  Since that time the band has made an exceptional name for itself throughout the Southeast by playing the top clubs and corporate parties, and getting excellent reviews along the way.  For several years the group has been a guest on most of the major beach concerts in the Carolinas, Virginia, and Georgia.

The band recorded their first song, Shaggin in 1978.  It has become a beach classic.  In 1982 at the Beach Music Awards, the Band of Oz was presented with an award for Best Group, and one of their songs, Ocean Boulevard, was voted Best Beach Record of that year.  At the 1995 Cammy Awards, Let It Roll took Album of the Year, and Shama Lama Ding Dong took Song of the Year. The band also walked away with Best Group of the Year.  At the 1996 awards, the band took home awards for Best Ballad and Best Live Recording.  The Band of Oz again received an award for Best Group and was inducted into the Beach Music Hall of Fame at  the 1997 Cammy Awards. 

In March 2005, Band of Oz decided to bring a new, youthful sound to the band. At that time, Scott Fine /Vocals and Trombone, Tim Morris /Vocals and Trumpet, and Daniel Morris /Saxophone and Vocals joined the Band of Oz to bring new youth and a BIG new sound to the band.  Don’t miss the show at Star City Beach Music Party!
