About Sing Out Loud

In 2016, local musicians and music lovers organized the first Sing Out Loud Music Festival, presenting nine days of free concerts featuring an amazing lineup of regional and local musical artists. Now, the event has expanded to include the St. Augustine Songwriters Festival, featuring Nashville songwriters performing at Colonial Oak Music Park and other downtown locations. Throughout the month, local and regional musicians perform on multiple stages or "showcases" throughout the area.
