Miami-Dade's largest country music happening just got bigger as Loud And Live, the Miami-based leading global entertainment, marketing, and live events company, in conjunction with its South Florida-focused live events division, EngageLive! announced today that the Country Bay Music Festival is adding a host of standout new country talent to perform at its inaugural event, set to be staged Nov. 11-12, 2023, on the grounds of the iconic Miami Marine Stadium, just minutes from downtown Miami at Key Biscayne.

Topping the sterling list of additions is Nate Smith, who hit No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Country Airplay chart last year with Whiskey On You. His current single World On Fire is racing up the chart. Travis Denning also crested the Hot Country Airplay chart in 2019 with After A Few. Filling out the roster are country-trap pioneer BRELAND, who already has charted six singles, including My Truck and Beers On Me, along with Mackenzie Carpenter, a 2021 inductee of CMT's "Next Women Of Country" program, and Jordan Oaks, a former police officer from Connecticut whose debut hit single is titled Bleeding Blue.
