MUSIC LOVERS TO FIND HOT SPOT AT ISLAND FEST  

Think Island Fest is just for art enthusiasts? Well, you couldn’t be more wrong! The 19th Annual Florida Keys Island Fest offers a musical melting pot that is guaranteed to satisfy your craving, no matter what your style or genre may be! From steel drums to rhythm and blues, Island Fest has it all. On Saturday and Sunday, April 10 & 11, Founders Park will host a tuneful extravaganza the best the Keys has ever heard!

Kicking off Saturday’s performances will be the easy-listening, beachy stylings of Collins & Webb. Next, relax with your feet in the sand and enjoy local favorite Island Vibes. Wrapping up the day’s musical line up will be steel drum performances by Toko Irie & Family, a reggae sensation sure to blow you away!

Musical festivities continue on Sunday, starting with Dave Feder and his Hillbilly Flamenco. Performing alongside him will be local artist Pasta Pantaleo, who will “choreograph” paintings to Dave’s rhythm tic guitar playing. This unique duo is definitely not to be missed! Also not to be missed are the ever-popular Van Lears, who are sure to captivate listeners with their distinct country / pop harmonies. The brothers, Trey & Andrew Bentley, are said to have been making music since before they could walk! Last, but certainly not least, Outta d’ Blues will take the stage and entertain music lovers with their Chicago-style electric blues.
