We had the honor of performing at the 2024 Rock the Arches event, and we are still buzzing from the incredible experience! Playing to help rebuild the historic arches at Fort Myers Beach was something truly special, and we couldn’t be more grateful to everyone who came out to support such an important cause.
The energy was electric from the moment the event kicked off. Seeing people gathered, not only for the love of music but also to help restore a beloved part of our community’s history, made the day unforgettable. As we took the stage, we felt the warmth and enthusiasm from the crowd—our fans, friends, and families—who came out to rock with us and rally behind the effort to rebuild the arches.
There’s something about live music, under the sun, with the Gulf breeze in the air, that makes every note feel a little more powerful. And knowing we were playing to support a piece of Fort Myers Beach history made the day even more meaningful.
One of the best parts of Rock the Arches was seeing how people came together to support the restoration effort. From local businesses to volunteers to the amazing audience who cheered us on—every person there contributed to a brighter future for the arches. It wasn’t just a concert; it was a celebration of the unity and strength of our Southwest Florida community.
We’re happy to share that the event raised a significant amount of money for the restoration project. While the full rebuild is still in progress, events like Rock the Arches are making sure that the vision to restore this iconic landmark becomes a reality. We’re proud to have been part of this important step in the journey.
We want to take a moment to thank everyone who came out to support the cause, especially those who danced, sang, and celebrated with us throughout the day. It’s fans like you that make every performance feel like a family gathering, and we can’t wait to do it all again soon.
To everyone who contributed to the rebuilding of the Fort Myers Beach arches, thank you. Your generosity and passion mean the world to us, and we’re proud to be part of such a dedicated community. Every dollar, every ticket, and every bit of support brings us closer to restoring a symbol that has stood for generations.
As we reflect on this incredible experience, we’re reminded of why we love being a part of Way Out South. It’s about more than the music—it’s about connection, community, and making a positive impact where we can. We’ll continue to support efforts that preserve the beauty and history of Southwest Florida, and we hope to see you at more events in the future.
Until then, keep the music alive and stay tuned for our next performances. And if you missed Rock the Arches, don’t worry—there will be more opportunities to join us in making a difference.
Here’s to many more unforgettable days and to a future where the Fort Myers Beach arches stand tall once again.
