BUSINESS BUZZ
FLORIDA GETS SOME SOUL Harrison Sapp and Griffin Bufkin have combined forces with the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida. This past October, SSI’s own Southern Soul fired up the barbecue pits in the Sound Garden of the Music Hall inside the park. Known to be the home of huge music festivals such as Hulaween and the Allman Brothers’ festival, Wannee, and a great getaway just to enjoy the outdoors, the park is located on the Suwannee River and near the intersection of I-10 and I-75. Music promoter Paul Levine was instrumental in getting Southern Soul in the park’s restaurant and working with SSBQ Chef Jason Leotis at the helm, they are doing breakfast, lunch and dinner: Thursday 11:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m., Friday-Saturday 8:00 a.m.-10:00 p.m. (live music), and Sunday 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. For more about the park, visit musicliveshere.com, for more about Southern Soul Barbeque Suwannee, visit Facebook and like their page.
