This week on The Ben & Kelli Show, we headed over to KAYA Island Eats & The Backyard Bar for great food, cold drinks, island vibes, and live music from The Marshall Morlock Band.

From the stage setup and crowd energy to the atmosphere that makes places like this special, we dive into the experience behind the music — not just the performance itself.

If you love live music, authentic venues, and the stories that happen between the songs… this one’s for you.

Real Music. Real Stories. Real Vibes.

This week we we've got a double shot for you🍻

We kicked things off at one of the most legendary rooms in Key West…
👉 The Green Parrot with XPERiMENTO bringing that high-energy, genre-bending sound that only works in a place like that.

Then we flipped the script completely…
👉 over to Willy T’s with Nick Brownell, where the crowd’s loud, the drinks are cold, and anything can happen.

Two completely different vibes.
Same island. Same heartbeat.

If you think you’ve got Key West music figured out… this one might surprise you.

Real music. Real stories. Real Key West.

What a year!!! Did you ever think we'd make another podcast???

Well, after deciding where we wanted to take this show we realized that we left off on a PERFECT segue into where we'll be going next.

From Tiki Bars to Amphitheaters to Hole-In-The-Wall little stages out back we'll be checking out some awesome venues and artists here in the Florida Keys.

Country, Rock, Pop, Metal, Hip Hop, R&B, Jazz, Folk, Americana, Reggae, Dance

Whatever kind of music you like...you can find it LIVE in Key West!

They say that Austin is the "Live Music Capital of the World". That might be true but there is NOTHING like live music in the Florida Keys.

This week we discuss some of what I'm talking about here. Give a listen and let us know what you think.

What is your favorite "Music City"?

It's been a year...

As we celebrate our 1 year anniversary of moving to the FL Keys we decided to put together a quick list of some things that we have learned about living in the Keys. While this list is NOT comprehensive it should give you a glimpse into what we noticed.

What else should we have on the list? What are some things we missed? Let us know in the comments.

As always we would love it if you would like, comment, share, rate...yada yada yada

SSHHHOOOOOOOOOO BUDDY! What a year it has been. HUGE move from WA to FL, Crazy Cross Country adventures, tornadoes, hurricanes... I don't know how much more JAM PACKED '24 could have been.

Happy New Year Everyone!!
