Saturday

Snowball preview

Snowball’s Chance is gearing up for two hours of performance Saturday as part of the Oregon Coast Music Festival.

Their noon show will be at the Shore Acres State Park. It is free to the public.

The Southwestern Oregon Community College-based band plays a wide variety of music from big band and swing to jazz and blues. Band leader Paul Vandervort said their eclectic selection is based on what sounds the band likes to play.

Snowball’s Chance performance is driven by the audience. Band members will be wearing Hawaiian shirts for the performance. Vandervort said he hopes that people attending the show will also wear the flowered shirts.

The more shirts they see in the audience, the more energy in the band’s performance, he said.
