In a news release, the St. Augustine Amphitheatre described the Local Artist Showcases as a cornerstone of the Sing Out Loud Festival. The showcases offer singers, songwriters, musicians and entertainers a platform to reach new audiences, connect with fellow artists and share the festival lineup with national headlining acts.
Norah Jones performs at the 2024 Sing Out Loud and Live Wildly Showcase.
“These free showcases feature over 100 performers spanning indie rock, bluegrass, hip hop, country, comedy, and the spoken word, providing music enthusiasts with the opportunity to explore the depth and diversity of the region’s music scene,” The Amphitheatre said.
Presented by PNC Bank, a “dedicated supporter of the arts,” Sing Out Loud, now in its ninth year, spans four weekends in September.
“As PNC expands alongside our growing region, we’re committed to investing in what makes it unique, including its creativity, culture and people,” Chris Kalin, PNC regional president for North Florida, said in the release. “We know the arts play an important role in creating a strong, vibrant community and we’re thrilled to continue our support of this much-anticipated annual event.”
In addition to free Local Artist Showcases, the festival’s marquee features Hozier, Beabadoobee, Vance Joy, The Teskey Brothers, Rilo Kiley, Father John Misty and more during the Live Wildly Showcase on Sept. 20 and 21 on Francis Field in historic downtown St. Augustine.
