After the success of the first annual Sandestin Music Festival in 2010, the Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort in Destin, Florida is ready to host the 2nd annual Sandestin Music Festival, on August 12th and 13th. The event which is co-sponsored by BMI, will provide free performances on multiple stages throughout the resort, by renowned and upcoming BMI artists.
"We are building on the huge success of last year's event where people of all ages enjoyed free concerts amid our wonderful resort setting and white sand beaches," said Sandestin President, John Russell. "We invite everyone to come see what all the fun is about and cap their summer season with us."
BMI will showcase legendary songwriters Jeffrey Steele and James Slate, along with Broadway star Lari White. Kree Harrison, Thomas Rhett, Joanna Cotton, Tyler Farr, and the Pernikoff Brothers, are considered to be some of BMI's upcoming and promising acts on the bill.
"BMI constantly seeks out new ways for our songwriters to connect with new audiences, and the first annual Sandestin Music Festival was an ideal opportunity," said BMI Vice President, Writer/Publisher Relations, Jody Williams. "Live music ensconced in the Sandestin's paradisiacal setting is a perfect way for fans to really get to know the masters behind the hits and to support worthwhile efforts on the Gulf Coast."
