Does Anybody have folk or old time songs from or about Florida? I can't seem to find any and it's hurting my Floridian pride.

The late Will McLean did a lot of songs about Florida. You can find his recordings and information about him at http://www.willmclean.com/. McLean's album titled Florida's Black Hat Troubadour has a terrific selection of his stuff.

Some of the work of the late Gamble Rogers is about Florida.

The Florida Folk Festival held in May, has a lot of Florida folk music.

Have fun!
