About the St. Augustine Songwriters Festival
Just like the Sunshine State, the St. Augustine Songwriters Festival is the kind of event that warms your soul. From throwback hits that your parents jammed out to, to your favorite songs growing up, to today’s hits, the music played at this festival will make you feel both nostalgic and inspired.
However, as you may have guessed the Songwriters Festival isn’t just about great music. In fact, it’s about spotlighting the songwriters too. Although you may know all the words to a particular jam, we bet you don’t know who the song was written by, written for, or written about. This event presents a chance to really dive into the meanings of popular songs from yesterday, today, and tomorrow. While most festivals celebrate songs in some fashion, this one is more about the writers behind the songs.
The festival is proudly presented by Sing Out Loud Festival in partnership with Bozard Ford.
About the Songwriters
A few of the hit songwriters that will be making an appearance in 2026 are Jeffrey Steele, The Warren Brothers, Anthony Smith, Wynn Varble, Grace West, Cliff Cody …and more!

Some of the others who have attended the Songwriters Festival to perform famous tunes they’ve penned include Keith Anderson, Danny Myrick, Bobby Pinson, Halfway to Hazard, Andy Albert … to name a few.
