A Music Man for All Seasons

A Music Man for All Seasons is a mobile disc-jockey service owned by John Harper, who has been entertaining at weddings and other occasions on the Outer Banks since 1985.  Few people know music as well as Harper, who can cite the year and artist off the top of his head of nearly any popular song. After playing for more than 800 wedding receptions and 200 functions ---parties, dances, reunions, corporate events --- Harper is so sought after, there is often a waiting list for his service.

In addition to serving for many years as a radio programmer, announcer and DJ on several Richmond, Va. and Outer Banks radio stations, since 1994 Harper has also been the North Carolina entertainment writer for The Virginian-Pilot and The Coast, a supplement to the Pilot.  With his distinctively deep voice, Harper has also been frequently heard doing voiceovers for local businesses.

Harper won the 2012 WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards, putting his service in top 5 percent of wedding pros nationwide. The award recognizes the top local wedding professionals from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellence and professionalism.

Duck Jazz Festival
Oct 9

October 9, 2025

This year, the Duck Jazz Festival proudly reaches its 16th anniversary, and with it, we unveil our artistic vision:“Duck Grooves: The Sound of Jazz,” is an electrifying celebration of jazz’s dynamic, ever-evolving nature, set against the stunning backdrop of the Currituck Sound. It’s a fusion of past, present, and future, where the timeless traditions of jazz intersect with the vibrancy of new, innovative sounds. Just as the sound of jazz flows and adapts, so too does the landscape of Duck where the rhythm of the music harmonizes with the natural beauty of the water and the surrounding environment.

Ocracoke Island Lighthouse

The Ocracoke Island Lighthouse may not be the most imposing of the Outer Banks lighthouses, but as North Carolina's oldest lighthouse in operation, (and the second oldest in the United States), it is certainly one of the most beloved. At just 65' ft. tall, it is by far the smallest lighthouse on the Outer Banks, but it still towers over the 4 square miles of Ocracoke Village, and its beacon can be spotted up to 14 miles into the Pamlico Sound and the Atlantic Ocean.
