FIND YOUR BEACH

Join us every Friday Night and Find Your Beach during our FNSW weekly Facebook Live Broadcast from 6 pm – 9 pm. We will be coming to you from the porches, backyards and home studios of some of our favorite solo and acoustic artists who have graced the Sound Waves stage in years past – complete with dance videos during the break and photos of our friends who over the years have become our FNSW family.

Head over to our Facebook Page and Tune In

There is an old saying attributed to music legends Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Richard Strauss and probably numerous other figures, There are only two types of music – good and bad. And while it doesn’t matter who said it first – the important thing is that it’s true.
South Florida has an amazing pool of music talent in the varied genres of Jazz, Blues, Country, Latin Fusion, Top 40, Reggae, World and Classic Rock, who can simply not wait to rock it out for you.
