Miami’s country and folk music scene may not be as widely known as other genres, but it has a dedicated presence in the city. Venues like Gramps in Wynwood and The Sandbar in Cutler Bay welcome artists who bring acoustic storytelling and classic country sounds to the stage. The Tamiami Park Fairgrounds and Homestead Rodeo Grounds also host events where country music is a central feature, often drawing a mix of local and national performers. Bars and restaurants with live music, such as The Salty, create a relaxed setting where folk musicians can share their songs with small but appreciative audiences.

Festivals and special events keep the spirit of country and folk music alive throughout the year. The South Dade Blues, Brews & BBQ Festival often includes folk and country acts alongside blues musicians, blending these styles in a way that fits Miami’s diverse music scene. Local singer-songwriter showcases highlight original work from artists who mix folk traditions with modern influences. Whether in a lively honky-tonk setting or a quiet acoustic session, country and folk music continue to find an audience in Miami.
