This is by far my favorite Key West event of all throughout the entire year. Country Music songwriter greats from around the country perform at various locations throughout Key West. And the best part... most of the entertainment is FREE! There are two to three musicians on stage at a time. One sings a song, then the next and so forth in rotation. The talent changes every hour so you are never board. 2014 Heralded some amazing talent including Sarah Evens at the main stage on Duval, and the beautiful Kacey Musgraves and Sarah Darling, to name a few. The 2015 Line up is equally as compelling with Jack Ingram, the legendary Robert Earl Keen and Rhett Akins, Josh Dorr's return and Chris Young! Whether you are a country music fan or just plain love music, this is a don't miss event. Smokin' Tuna is an official sponsor, so look for your t-shirts and memorabilia at the gift shop here. There are a few performances that require ticket purchases in advance. Heads up, they sell out quickly. You can purchase CDs and have them signed by the artists too!

He referred me to Dan Leatherman and Key West Casual Weddings. My wife and I renewed our vows recently and couldn't ask for anything more. It transpired rather quickly with a few emails & text messages going back and forth for a few weeks. He performed the services that we wanted at Smathers Beach at sunset. But it was a whole lot more than just that. He was like a concierge with booking everything else. Hair and makeup for the Mrs at our hotel nearby, and flowers were delivered there also.Plus reservations at a restaurant nearby, right on the water. All we had to do was show up at our designated location an hour before sunset. Highly recommend Dan and his services if you're looking for a wedding day you'll never forget.
