The band, based in Charlotte, N.C., will be on the TV show "Star Search" Nov. 24. In Columbia, the show will air on WL.TX at 6 and 11 p.m. Sunday. NAMED AFTER a city sewer, this beachmusic band switched to rock 'n' roll to broaden their audience and their creativity. Rick Lee, keyboard player and vocalist, said the band wanted to get more national attention and make national albums, 4'so we went with rock to appeal to more people." The six-member group gained national attention with the hit "What A Night," which went to "American Bandstand." Lee, who has been with the band since it was formed 13 years ago, said that Myrtle Beach has been their training ground. "MYRTLE BEACH has been a home and training ground for years," he said. "A lot of the old fans still come back to see the band." The group's new album, "Rock The Night Away," contains 12 original cuts, including the title song, which is getting extensive airplay throughout the Carolinas. The group's last album, "Fortune," received regional success that they hoped to promote to national success.

SUGARCREEK HAS attracted an audience throughout the Southeast and has played with REO Speedwagon, Tony Carey, Huey Lewis and the News, the SOS Band, Cheap Trick, Poco, the Outlaws, Wet Willie, Pablo Cruise and Point Blank. In addition to their original music, Sugarcreek plays music by AC/DC, Asia, Journey, Van Halen, John Cougar and Loverboy. "We're doing our best to put the Charlotte area on the national music scene," Lee said. The group's changing style and musical interests are evident in their new music. "Our emphasis now is on our own music," Clark said. "WK HAVK had big-name record executives call us and keep a check on what we are up to." According to Lee, the band's ability to adjust to change is the key to their success. "We can flow with the time. We've covered a lot of time and a lot of changes in music. It's a lot of fun and a lot of hard work," he said. ilarship fund Pholo bv Thad Oaise and Tim Killian are ready for the in all the preceding shows," he noted, to Lee, the money is going to a worthwhile e club is expecting a large turnout by USC >ing to have some expenses, but not an awful honestly a minimum of $8,000 raised for the lid.
