The 2024 edition of Tortuga Music Festival took off at Fort Lauderdale Beach Park on Friday in an atmosphere that came close to perfect, with blue skies, mid-70s temps and sunny dispositions all around. Priscilla Block was sassy, Boyz II Men crooned, Warren Zeiders rocked and the evening crowd was surprisingly manageable. Another surprise: Ashley McBryde’s secret set on a small stage outside a Jersey Mike’s booth. She did a half-dozen songs and signed a few autographs. The 100 or so fans that caught her were giddy. Something to look out for as Tortuga continues on Sunday.
