Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep.

Sea creatures off the Florida Keys got a concert. The Lower Keys Underwater Music Festival attracted divers. It's to promote preserving the nation's only coral barrier reef. People enjoyed ocean-themed hits like "Yellow Submarine" and "The Little Mermaid" theme played through waterproof speakers. Concertgoers said the music sounded muted, but they were compensated with a piano pun. They were playing the keys.

It's MORNING EDITION.
