Jacksonville has been the birthplace for so many great musical acts over the years, and the city has always enjoyed an active music scene.
So it should come as no surprise that, over the years, several artists and bands have penned songs that allude to or even pay homage to the Bold City.
Below we’ve assembled a short collection of our favorite songs about Jacksonville. It’s by no means a definitive list, and we hope to hear from you all with some of your favorites!
If country music is more your speed, you’ll enjoy Josh Turner’s ballad about our beautiful city.
In the song Turner refers to a love story that begins on Ocean Drive while he was just passing through the city. His new love inspires him to “kill a few more days in Jacksonville.”
The song was part of Turner’s 2003 album, Long Black Train.
