Urban Music Fest (often abbreviated as "AUMF") is a two-day, national and local entertainment stage hosting, family-centric event that occurs in Austin, Texas, during the Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays. The festival features stages that focus specifically on R&B, jazz, indie soul, gospel / neo soul, and showcases local and unsigned artists.
The Festival also reaches out to the youth (ages 12 - 21) in the Austin area - teaching them the music industry through a non profit organization known as SoulTree Collective. SoulTree Collective was established a year after the Festival, and its participants are trained to perform on stage at the Festival - providing quality entertainment to festival goers who in turn get to witness the newest crop of Urban Music artists each year.
This festival was not held in 2020.[1]
