4th Annual Sing Out Loud Festival

The 4th annual Sing Out Loud Music Festival kicks off September with a roster of 334 national, regional, and local artists performing in live concerts at various St. Augustine venues.

The month-long free festival held on the four weekends from September 6th-29th features eclectic presentations of concerts by country music star Kacey Musgraves, St. Paul & the Broken Bones, Jenny Lewis, Kurt Vile, Shovels & Rope, Son Volt and Aaron Lee Tasjan, The Growlers, Hot Water Music, Propagandhi and Subhumans, GZA, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, the Menzingers, and Dave Hause, Raye Zaragoza, and more. The full schedule is available at www.singoutloud.com. 

All the concerts are free, with the exception of Musgraves’ September 21st benefit show at The Amp. Proceeds will benefit Horseplay Therapy Center and Green Hands Community Outreach Initiatives. The show is sold out.

Numerous venues in the St. Augustine area are slated to host, including The Amp (on the main stage, the Backyard Stage, and the Front Porch), the Colonial Oak Music Park, the Gamble Rogers Showcase stage on Aviles St., Dog Rose Brewing, Nobby’s, Sarbez, and more.

Artists range from bittersweet Americana, socially conscious Punk Rock, and powerhouse Soul to progressive Bluegrass, alternative Country, and Indie Pop. Since its inception in 2016, Sing Out Loud has attracted an estimated 25,000 music fans and featured over 600 performing artists at over a dozen venues.

The St. Augustine Distillery Co. is the title sponsor for the Sing Out Loud Festival in 2019, with its commitment to highlighting the St. Augustine arts community and ensuring that the Festival remains accessible to everyone with hundreds of free concerts over four weekends. According to Philip McDaniel, the CEO of St. Augustine Distillery Co., “The opportunity to help support what is becoming a world-class music festival, free of charge to locals and visitors, with original music and performances by local musicians, was a dream come true for us.”
