GRANT LIVINGSTON, Folk music
Grant Livingston has been a favorite at folk venues throughout Florida since the mid-eighties, and was highly acclaimed at our festivals in 2007, 2008 and 2009. As a guitarist, he employs a style which is a unique mix of ragtime, country blues and early swing. An offbeat sense of humor is reflected in the stories about Florida history and environment which are told in his songs. For more information, check out his website at www.grantlivingston.com

BUD TROPICO, “tropical” Floribbean music
Bud has been charming and entertaining Florida audiences since the early 1980’s. Getting his start in college at USF, Bud combined his heritage as a 5th generation Floridian with the popular music of the state and the Caribbean. He has performed at various bars, hotels, beach parties and on cruise ships; and locally at Margaritaville, Bahama Breeze, and Gaylord Palms Hotel Center. Bud also performed at our festival in 2008 and 2009, and we are pleased to have him back again.
