CANCELED: CW Colt In Concert

CW Colt is a Key West–based singer/songwriter, storyteller, and local legend. He is the author of “We Are One Human Family,” the Official Song of Key West — a musical reflection of the island’s soul and its deep sense of community.

This special night at Williams Hall weaves together original songs and unforgettable stories from a life shaped by worldly travels and years living in the Florida Keys among its one-of-a-kind characters. Colt’s performances move effortlessly from laughter to tears of joy, offering moments that inspire connection, compassion, and a reminder of what it means to be human.

Rooted in Caribbean Country Blues and stretching far beyond genre lines, CW Colt delivers music and storytelling that are heartfelt, humorous, and deeply authentic — the kind that stays with you long after the last note fades.
