Mountain Music is a 1937 American comedy-musical film directed by Robert Florey.

Paramount quickly reunited Raye and Burns from their pairing in Waikiki Wedding of earlier the same year. The plot, rooted in Burns' comic hillbilly persona from radio, revolves around a longstanding feud between two country families of Monotony, Arkansas, and an amnesia-prone groom.
