Locally based, Naum describes themselves as an aggressive indie rock group. They play mostly original music, with a few covers from bands such as Sum 41 and The Runaways.

Based in Central Florida, Tru Phonic is the multi-genre brain child of frontman Jake Salter. This crew of talented musicians is committed to building community with the Florida DIY music scene. Tru Phonic has released two full-length studio albums and one live album, with the most recent, Jambiguous, having been released in January of 2022.

Tommy Curry, Jimmy Curry, and Galen Curry formed a harmony-based trio of singers, songwriters, and musicians in 2013. Since 2013, they've released three highly-acclaimed albums and moved on from playing at oyster bars to becoming featured acts at larger venues and numerous festivals. 

From central Florida, Michelle Rae Ingrhman may work a bit as a free-lance florist, but this is her time to promote her music. She has been actively booking acts, writing new songs, and is working on creating her first album.

She sings and plays guitar, and simply enjoys what she does, allowing the audience to enjoy right along with her. Her songs are personal, yet universal. Her memories could be our memories, such as "Ready or Not," about young sweethearts, "too old for big wheels too young to drive a car."

Born in Springfield, Missouri at 12:05 a.m. on July 15, 1953, David Lynn Grimes has embraced Alaska since 1977. He has said that he has been roaming in and out of Alaska ever since, traveling south to Big Sur and back again to Prince William Sound. His other route south has been back to Missouri and south to Florida, and wherever he is, David embraces nature and shares his music.

A simply outstanding guitar player, David said that while he has been a musician all of his life, lyrics were a challenge — until they weren't and "words have been pouring out of me like a river."

Frank Lindamood has a lock on Old American Music, while barely hanging on to the 21st century.  In fact, one wit has said that Frank’s love of old music and desire to leave the modern world behind has caused him to seek back farther and farther to find raw, powerful music from America’s early years.

Born in Sopchoppy, Florida (yes, this is a town), Frank Lindamood still lives near the Apalachicola National Forest, where he sometimes writes original songs that sound as though they were old songs that had never been recorded until  Frank came along.

Jeanie Fitchen has attended the Florida Folk Festival since 1966, saying that she "grew up" at the festival. Born and raised in Orlando, singer and songwriter Jeanie Sinsinni Fitchen eschewed her mom's dreams of raising an opera singer to join the folk movement.

She was 15 in 1966 when she first performed on the Old Marble Stage at the Florida Folk Festival. Her sweet speaking voice becomes a still sweet, stronger, and clear singing voice, whether she is singing old folk tunes or newer ones she has written.

The Peyton Brothers make it sound simple. As teens and twenty-somethings, growing up in Jacksonville, they picked up some instruments in 1972 and decided to form a band. The instruments were the mandolin (Lee), guitar (Dan), bass (Michael), and banjo (John). Their familial musical abilities helped them create strong harmonies, and it was the 70's — so they became a folk and bluegrass band.
