Songwriters, performers and music fans swelled the usual population of vacationers and year-round residents at one of the USA’s most unique locations for five days in May.

The occasion was the 27th Annual Key West Songwriters Festival, held at the southernmost tip of Florida and the Sunshine State lived up to its nickname for the five-day Fest, May 3 through 7. As always, the Festival’s shows drew songwriters and appreciative audiences from across the USA and beyond.
