As holiday travelers flock to the beach this week, Ocean City and Rehoboth Beach are bringing the heat with live music performances at local hot spots.

A highlight of the weekend will be the debut of Sonic OCM, a new “supergroup” formed by veteran musicians from the Baltimore and Ocean City music scenes. The band will perform at Fast Eddie’s nightclub in Ocean City on Saturday, November 30 at 8 p.m. Sonic OCM promises a high-energy set focused on ’90s rock radio hits. The supergroup consists of Brian Ford (Crushing Day, The Loft) on vocals, Ron “Stretch” Thompson (Scrapple) on guitar and vocals, Idzi (Child’s Play) on bass, and Rob Minnick (Kirk McEwen Band) on drums.
