The Shoreliners Band

The Shoreliners are a very versatile group consisting of five members with a combined total of over 125 years of experience with performing for the public. Each individual in the group is multi-talented. All five members play more than one instrument and the group sings in three and four part harmony.

The group originated in the coalfields of northeastern Pennsylvania around a small town called Lansford around 1950. Since the group's conception, they have played all over the country entertaining any and all walks of life.
