HAVE MUSIC WILL TRAVEL: GEORGIA’S SENSATIONAL MUSIC FESTIVALS

By Mary Ann Anderson

SOMETHING IN THE WATER Mary Ann Anderson is a writer based in Hazlehurst. Her focus is on tourism, travel, and nature, primarily in Georgia, and her regional publications include GEORGIA Magazine and Georgia Backroads Magazine. She also writes syndicated travel content for McClatchy-Tribune Information Services and is the author of three books. When she’s not writing or spending time with her cats and husband, she’s roaming the back roads of Georgia and zipping across the world searching for stories to tell.

James Flynn has been conducting informal research on the link between Georgia food and successful music production for over 26 years by exhaustively eating at as many restaurants as possible. While results are still inconclusive, he has learned that eating at Gladys and Ron’s Chicken and Waffles destroys one’s desire to eat fried chicken anywhere else. Mr. Flynn is also in the process of reviving the terms “skillet licker,” “neat,” “hooray” and “un-hooray.” Page 28, jedwardflynn@gmail.com

Greetings: It is impossible to talk about 21st century music without mentioning an artist from Georgia. The history of music is incomplete without James Brown, R.E.M., Allman Brothers, Jessye Norman, Trisha Yearwood, Ray Charles and so many more. While Georgia has contributed so much to the history and heritage of music, music has contributed so much to Georgia. Welcome to the 2008-2009 Georgia Music Production SourceBook. We are pleased to provide you with a music industry guide that features our unmatched talent, superlative music production infrastructure and other invaluable resources. Commissioner Ken Stewart

Georgia’s music industry continues to grow – creating jobs and opportunities for Georgians. In 2007, our music industry, which employs nearly 10,000 Georgians, had an overall economic impact in the state of $2 billion; an increase of $300 million from 2005. Georgia’s annual music industry payroll is more than $85 million and the industry pays $54 million in state taxes. The Georgia Music Production SourceBook is just one of the many services offered by the Georgia Film, Music & Digital Entertainment Office, formerly known as the Film, Video & Music Office. The office assists the local, national and international entertainment industries with information, expertise and resources. In addition, the Georgia Music Industry Roundtable and Georgia Music Industry Task Force were recently established in support of the industry.

Deputy Commissioner Bill Thompson

The state of Georgia is proud of our music industry and will continue to support and promote our music resources to the world. We are looking forward to the future of Georgia’s music industry – one of our most prized assets.

Sincerely,

Ken Stewart Commissioner Georgia Department of Economic Development

He estimates the entire project at more than $35,000, including removing old roofing, re-roofing pitched and flat roofs, replacing rotted wood, installing new copper flashing and placing copper coping on the front edge of the roof. The Big House Foundation is converting The Big House from a residence into a world-class, interactive, handicapped-accessible museum commemorating the wide-ranging cultural and historic impact of the Allman Brothers Band, said Foundation president Bob Johnson. It is expected to open in April 2009 to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Allman Brothers

Band. The Big House’s 18 rooms will house the world’s largest archival collection of Allman Brothers Band memorabilia. The Big House Foundation will collaborate with the Georgia Music Hall of Fame to operate arts and humanities programs meeting state and national K-12 educational objectives. The museum will have a particular focus on youth mentoring and positive lifestyle choices. The Foundation also has acquired the adjoining, formerly blighted property, which has been cleared and will feature beautifully landscaped grounds with handicapped accessibility to parking and to the museum.

Soapbox Studios Midtown is ready to rock!

The Big House Raises the Roof A chance encounter at a concert led a New York contractor to make a major donation to the Big House Museum that is being developed in Macon to preserve the home and history of the Allman Brothers Band. Mark Franzoso stood next to Gary Giller, treasurer of the Big House Foundation, at a sold out Allman Brothers concert in Saratoga Springs, NY and struck up a friendship that would bring him to Macon several years later to start the renovations needed to turn a 108-year-old stately Grand Tudor mansion into a unique, historic musical institution. The Big House is where the members of the Allman Brothers Band lived from 1970 to 1973 and wrote some of their most acclaimed music, be-

coming the principal architects of the new genre of Southern Rock music under the Macon label Capricorn Records. A year after meeting Giller, Franzoso met Allman Brothers Band tour manager Kirk West, who had lived for nearly 15 years in the Big House with his wife, Kirsten, and had amassed an enormous collection of memorabilia. “A year and a half ago when Kirk sold his house to the foundation, I was asked to look at the engineering report and come up with an estimate for a new roof,” said Franzoso. “I was flattered that I was asked to get involved. Franzoso’s five-man crew has just finished re-roofing the 6,000square-foot house. Franzoso donated the labor for the roof and

Three Keys Inks Deal Atlanta trumpeter Joey Sommerville signed with Three Keys Music, headed by Marcus Johnson and distributed by Koch Distribution. Sommerville’s latest album, “Like You Mean It” was released worldwide earlier this year. The CD’s title track is an infectious Latin flavored party jam that helped catapult Sommerville to #7 on the indie jazz chart, catching the attention of industry insiders including Johnson. Notable collaborators include Wayman Tisdale on the Average White Band classic “School Boy Crush,” Mike Phillips playing his heart out on the quiet storm ready instrumental version of Floetry’s “Say Yes,” Marion Meadows lending his signature sax sound to “Follow Me,” and Phil Perry going where no other vocalist can go on “Reflections.” Other songs include “Johan-

nesburg” which was recorded in part in Johannesburg with South African musicians and singers and “I Want You Back,” a fresh read on The Jackson 5 classic. But the song that gets the most response across the board is the title track and first single, “Like You Mean It.” Atlanta’s Smooth Jazz 107.5 WJZZ not only placed “Like You Mean It” in heavy radio rotation, they broadcast Sommerville’s live performances every Thursday night at Sambuca Jazz Café. Each week features a special guest performer from a rotating list of jazz giants. Past guests include internationally celebrated artists such as the legendary Ronnie Laws, Wayman Tisdale, Marion Meadows, Mike Phillips, Eric Marienthal, Paul Taylor, Peabo Bryson, and keyboard legend and producer Jeff Lorber.

Third Day Makes Billboard Atlanta-based rock band Third Day was selected as Billboard Magazine’s cover/feature story for the June 7 edition. This marked the first time since the trade’s redesign in 2005 that a Christian band was featured as a full cover story. The piece included not only the cover, but also a four-page feature within the publication’s pages. Following the Billboard cover, Third Day continued their march into the national spotlight with a performance on NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

In addition, the band held the No. 1 position on the R&R Christian AC Monitored chart for over five weeks. “Call My Name,” the first single from the band’s July 29 Revelation project, is nearing 25 million weekly impressions, according to the CRW radio-impressions chart. Following the release of Revelation, the band hit the road for summer festival appearances and the Music Builds Tour with Switchfoot, Robert Randolph & the Family Band and Jars of Clay.

GEORGIA’S WILL SENSATIONAL

TRAVELMUSIC FESTIVALS

BY MARY ANN ANDERSON

ngus McDougall was mesmerized by the slow country blues intonations of Mary Flower as she took to the stage at the Blind Willie McTell Blues Festival in Thomson. “I love coming here, and it’s my third year back,” he declared as he stretched, lazily and cat-like, in his lawn chair in the almost-too-warm afternoon sunshine. “The music is first class, the weather is good—it was cold in New York when I left—and the atmosphere is so, well, I can’t say it any other way, southern. And truthfully, that’s part of the reason I come, too. I really like the South.” The Scottish-born New Yorker and staunch blues fan, his bare feet tapping in steady rhythm to the easy plinking of Flower’s guitar strings, related how he and his wife, Lena, had driven “down South,” as he called it, just for the festival held outside of Thomson in McDuffie County, where McTell was born in 1901. There are plenty more admirers like the McDougalls who come year after year to honor the blues legend in his hometown and hear the likes of Flower, soul and gospel star Mavis Staples, the Australian-born-but-nowAtlanta-based Geoff Achison, and others like Thomson’s own Crosstie Walkers. Georgians love their festivals. We are famous for celebrating everything from apple blossoms, watermelons, and grits, to possum hollers, fire ants, and rattlesnakes. But when it comes to our music festivals, whether the genre is bluegrass, country, jazz, gospel, rock, or hip-hop, let’s face it: Georgia has an almost outrageous number of events— though plenty would argue too few—but each one is special and incomparable in its own way. Just ask McDougall, who drove hundreds of miles for Blind Willie. If the southern sun is shining, the skies blue, the air perfumed with newly mown green grass, and the natural acoustics of the birds singing and soft breezy afternoons nearly perfect, all components on which Georgia rests its laurels, then it’s time to get outside and celebrate music. Not only are our music festivals the symbol of a way of life

“The music is first class, the weather is good—it was cold in New York when I left—and the atmosphere is so, well, I can’t say it any other way, southern. And truthfully, that’s part of the reason I come, too. I really like the South.” -Angus McDougall music festivals that are melodiously and harmoniously varied. Music is one of the common denominators of these regions, including the Appalachian twang reminiscent of the Historic High Country in the northwest Georgia mountains, the snazzy bluegrass of the Northeast Mountains where the banjo reigns supreme, then moving down to Atlanta Metro where the music is jazzier, edgier, and more mellow before meandering to Savannah and the Coast. Through the remaining, more rural regions of the state—the Historic India.Arie at the Atlantis Music Conference

One of the premier festivals for showcasing these “fresh and bright” musicians is the Atlantis Music Conference & Festival, founded in 1997 and fairly young by festival standards. “The festival started with one mission, to create the greatest platform of discovery for new talent in America,” explains co-founder Mark Willis. “Atlantis has been on the forefront of change since my partner, Rich Photo Credit: Noel St. John

Pernell Roberts, and Ossie Davis. The deep South Georgia town on the edge of the Okefenokee Swamp, where the alligators bellow in tune to whistles of hundreds of birds, is also where Gram Parsons grew up. Giving credit where credit is due, Waycross resident Dave Griffin organized the first and always-growing Gram Parsons Guitar Pull and Tribute. The festival, now in its 11th year and held at the Okefenokee Fairgrounds, started in Griffin’s backyard when around Thanksgiving of 1998 he invited a few local pickers to celebrate the life of Parsons. “Every year the festival grew larger as more and more people heard about it,” Griffin explains before taking on a sort of an animated slight laugh. “Then one morning I woke up and found dirty footprints in my bathtub. That’s when I knew I had to take it out of my backyard and into a public venue.” That year was 2002, and with past performers like Jimmy Hall from Wet Willie, GRAMMY® Award-winning songwriter and singer Jim Lauderdale, and Walter Egan and the Brooklyn Cowboys, this year promises a swamp-load of talent including country hit-maker Lee Roy Parnell and Lona Heins, formerly Pam Tillis’s backup singer who headlined the festival in 2003 and whom Griffin describes as having “the voice of an angel.”

Allen Lanier says that his 34-acre venue, which hosts three bluegrass and gospel festivals throughout the year—one in April devoted to the music of a different state, another in May that is known as the “Spring Bluegrass Festival,” and the Marty Wilson Memorial Bluegrass Fest in October—began when the Lonesome Whistle Band, who had been traveling and playing all over the United States, decided to build their own music park. Located on Old Louisville Road, upwards of 2,000 fans come to the festivals to hear not only the Lonesome Whistle Band, but also the likes of Charlie Waller and the Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crow and the New South, and Dr. Ralph Stanley. The sugared sands and wind-whipped waves of the Atlantic Ocean provide the backdrop for the New Year’s Bluegrass Festival held at the Jekyll Island Convention Center. The annual event, spanning three days, attracts performers including the Gary Waldrep Band, the Country Gentlemen, and the Inspirations. And in May, a former cow pasture in the tiny town of Hoboken in the pine forests of Brantley County transforms itself into the Twin Oaks Bluegrass Convention and draws pickers like Goldwing Express, Pine Mountain Railroad, and the Wilson Family Band. 24

The region is a melting pot of Georgia’s culture with its strong musical influences rooted in religion and Sunday morning church services, African-American traditions, and Appalachian customs. May brings the Blind Willie McTell Blues Festival, the most widely known of the Classic South festivals. Set on a hillside cow pasture, the festival commemorates the blind bluesman-eventually-turned preacher whose songs bespoke of the South. The attitude of the festival, like most that are held outdoors, is very much kick-back-and-relax but it still has the kind of quality entertainment that impresses fans enough to bring Scottish-accented New Yorkers to a grassy field in Thomson. In the spring and fall every year, the pines reverberate with the sounds of bluegrass at Elijah Clark State Park, located at Lincolnton on the western shore of the 70,000-acre Clarks Hill Lake on the border between Georgia and South Carolina.

The Lewis Family, billed as “America’s First Family of Gospel Bluegrass Music” and whose influences were the Chuck Wagon Gang, the Louvin Brothers, and Bill Monroe, first played together as a family in 1951 and is still around today.

All of them are great, and the audience comes from as far away as Maine and Arizona.” Just a few miles away in Augusta, a brand new, important, and full-of-promise festival is to take place in September. The Westobou Festival, named because the Savannah River, which flows through downtown Augusta, was once called the Westobou River by the Westo Indians, is patterned after Charleston’s Spoleto and Piccolo Spoleto festivals. Westobou is a celebration of regional music, dance, theatre, and visual arts, and among the scheduled entertainers for the inaugural event are Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt, big names that undoubtedly will lend a hand in packing in audiences.

“The [Elijah Clark Bluegrass] festival was started to provide a venue of inexpensive entertainment where young musicians can display their talent in a setting designedfor traditional-style bluegrass.” -Don DeClue Kathi Dimmock, managing director of Westobou, expects the festival to draw more than 100,000 visitors from across the Southeast during the 10-day event. “Festivals are famous for bringing people together regardless of age, gender, or culture and music is a platform that everyone can experience and appreciate,” she says. “Additionally, we

Athens, home of the University of Georgia and the darling of the Heartland, is the setting for AthFest, one of Georgia’s most beloved music festivals that masterfully showcases local and regional talent. From AthFest’s beginnings in 1997 on a single stage that was, according to its internationally acclaimed founder Jared Bailey, “literally on the front steps of the Athens-Clarke County Courthouse,” the five-day June event has grown and simply exceeded all expectations. Bailey also expects it to continue to become more popular and improve in quality, just as it has done over the past 12 years since its inception. Steadily on its way to becoming the premier summer event in the Southeast, Bailey ideally would like to see the festival stretch from Athens’s Classic Center to the 40 Watt Club, which is essentially from one end of downtown Athens’s entertainment and hospitality district to the other. More than 150 bands performed at the festival in June,

brighter klieg lights. As proof, Bailey easily reels off a few names and special moments from past festivals, including, he says, “seeing a very young and as-yet-unknown John Mayer play AthFest two years in a row, seeing Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland wooing huge crowds from a stage in front of the Clarke County Courthouse, and seeing Drive-By Truckers set the crowd on fire on stage in the street in front of the 40 Watt.” And he recalls two years ago when Modern Skirts was playing and the rain came down hard and steady: “The band, like the troopers they are, played on.

Georgia’s Historic High Country, in the Appalachian foothills just north and west of Atlanta and south of Chattanooga, is probably known more for its scenic beauty, Native American ancestry, Civil War Trails, and Lookout Mountain (See Rock City! See Seven States!), but its musical heritage is firmly rooted in bluegrass and gospel. One of the largest venues is the Raccoon Creek Music Park in Dallas. Every July, the park hosts a “bluegrass and bar-b-que” festival, with draws like the Gary Waldrep Band, Maple Creek, and Lizzy Long & Friends. Other smaller venues in the area—the Austell Chapter No. 87 Bluegrass & Gospel Music Show in Dallas in March and the J.J. Merrell Memorial Benefit Festival in Tallapoosa in April—manage to attract great talent.

Almost every major musical genre has at least one trailblazer, one visionary, who has called Georgia home. Why Georgia?

SOMETHING By: James Flynn As I walked through the second floor offices of the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in Macon with executive director Lisa Love, Jeff Mangum’s distinctive angular voice was wafting through the air. The song was “Two Headed Boy” off of the seminal indie album In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. The album came to define Neutral Milk Hotel, Mangum’s alter ego and occasional band from the mid to late 90’s, and to a degree the Athens music scene at the time. Much like the Velvet Underground, more than 25 years earlier, Neutral Milk Hotel failed to attract much mainstream attention, but was vastly influential on other musicians and widely praised by critics. Aeroplane, filled with Mangum’s narrative of childhood memories, strangely visual nightmares, and a touching if not eerie connection with Anne Frank, was absorbed into the musical fabric by other indie musicians and expanded the possibilities of “what can be” in music. All this from some Louisiana transplants, via an album recorded in Colorado, living together in Athens, GA. Neutral Milk Hotel was hardly the first group of transplants to come out of Georgia, and certainly one of the least known. Twenty years prior, army brat Michael Stipe met California born but Georgia bred Peter Buck in Athens, where both were attending the University of Georgia. The two formed a band with fellow students Mike Mills and Bill Berry, and after settling on the name R.E.M., quickly found a following of hardcore fans, and their influence over alternative music at the time is well documented. Unlike Neutral Milk Hotel, R.E.M. was able to cultivate their underground following into massive mainstream success over the next two decades with numerous hit songs and albums, sold out arenas, and fans like Kurt Cobain. A decade before that, two brothers from Florida found success out of Macon, though it took some detouring through Muscle Shoals and Los Angeles. 28

Gregg and Duane Allman, along with the rest of the Allman Brothers band, joined with newly formed Capricorn Records and became one of the innovators of Southern Rock. Of course, the list of artists who actually grew up in the state, or whose influential careers were either born here or firmly established here, is even longer: Ray Charles, Otis Redding, James Brown, Little Richard, Widespread Panic, Indigo Girls, Alan Jackson, OutKast, T.I., Jermaine Dupri, Trisha Yearwood, Travis Tritt, Dallas Austin, Usher…and that’s just the last 50 years! As Love and I wandered along the exhibits at the Hall of Fame, I began to wonder…why Georgia? Why not Indiana, or Arkansas? How did a southern state far from the metropolises of the northeast and west coast become so influential on music, to the point that almost every major musical genre has at least one trailblazer, one visionary who called this state home? (I said major musical genre…sorry, polka). Is it something real, something tangible that can be captured and used to create the next big act, or is it just a grand coincidence? Fortunately, I wasn’t the only one who had spent so many hours wondering about the subject. Love has the same questions. “Maybe that’s the ultimate answer I’ve been searching for,” she said. “Why Georgia?” Armed with a supremely vast knowledge of Georgia’s musical history, Love’s curiosity was born from family roots. Her grandfather was a musician, playing in a band with legendary Boudleaux Bryant at one point, and Love helped put herself through school playing bass in a cover band. Though far too young to remember firsthand, Love can chat easily about the days when “Ma Rainey was out in the blues world, and Blind Willie McTell and all these folks. At the same time Gid Tanner and the Skillet Lickers, I believe in the 30’s, were the top selling country act on Columbia Records.”

Love has tried to make sense of it. “I think there’s an inherent love of music and tradition and family and all these elements that have just made people passionate about making music.” There is no doubt that southern tradition, steeped in the church and gospel, has influenced a number of musical acts over the years. Yet it fails to capture the full scope of music that has been born, bred or cultivated in the state. In the end, the only definitive answer I got from Love was, “I don’t know.” Honest and frustrating. Every state has had its share of success stories, and certainly the big three cities of New York, Los Angeles and Nashville have dominated music production from day one. Outside of those megacenters, there have been other hubs: Chicago, New Orleans and Memphis played their roles in the blues, jazz and country. Detroit was the king of R&B. Unlike Georgia, however, most of these centers have rational, easy-to-digest explanations. New York has been the cultural epicenter of America for too long to count, and is easily one of the most diverse cities on the planet. It was the first home to many of the recording industry’s biggest labels and spawned Tin Pan Alley, a collection of publishers and songwriters. It’s not surprising that such a place would continually attract and produce influential artists. Oh yeah, and it’s huge. L.A. may not have the deep cultural roots of New York, but it is undeniably one of the most productive artistic centers in the world. It is also in Southern California, which doesn’t hurt its ability to attract new artists hoping to be inspired by the beauty of the west coast. And it’s got money. Lots of it. Nashville has long been the home and heart of country music, and had Memphis in state to help build and sustain its musical heritage. Even today, songwriters fill the clubs and bars, playing songs that may one day become massive hits.

Chicago is one of the great American cities, urban and centralized. It also was welcome refuge to many southern black artists when the South was not so accommodating. Plus, it’s freezing in the winter and the Cubs haven’t won a World Series in 100 years. You have to do something to pass the winter months of boredom and disappointment hunkered indoors. May as well make music. If New York is the cultural epicenter of the country, New Orleans is the cultural soul. A city so unique that attempts to describe it generally end up as novels, the place simply oozes its own artistic identity. The music from New Orleans reflects that identity, with jazz, funk and zydeco reign supreme. Looking at those hubs, Georgia stands apart. It has never been limited by genre, never been considered a cultural hotspot, and there is no center of Georgia music. Not officially anyway. The Allmans and Otis called Macon home. R.E.M., the B-52s, Widespread Panic, the Drive-By Truckers and indie collective Elephant 6 all erupted out of the University of Georgia’s ripe musical scene. Atlanta has contributed its share with hip-hop acts galore like Goodie Mob, OutKast, T.I. and Ludacris. Trisha Yearwood came from a little town called Monticello. While L.A. has long drawn artists, actors and musicians seeking to capitalize on the moneydrowned streets of Hollywood, Atlanta seems to draw them not so they can capitalize on what’s already here, but because they needed somewhere to go . . . and why not the ATL? After all, it’s the biggest city in the Southeast, and if you’re a country kid from Alabama or Mississippi, it’s here or New Orleans. Not many people are flocking to the Charlottes and Columbias of the world. Maybe big metropolitan cities just breed art. Atlanta is a big city, but you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who has lived in the city more than 30 years and doesn’t remember farmland or cow pastures “just down that road.” And while it has been the unofficial capital of the Southeast for a long time, its stature as a true metropolitan city is much more recent. Despite its mature music and film production community, Atlanta is not L.A. or New York, and it has no Music Row like Nashville’s. As prolific as the state has been in music and film production, you don’t see paparazzi lining Peachtree Street, and I’ve yet to be handed a script by a waiter. Maybe I’m eating at the wrong restaurants. In turn, Atlanta is only part of the equation. Macon? I’ve lived in Georgia most of my life, and I’d never even been to Macon until my visit to the Hall of Fame.

There is, of course, the simple explanation that Georgia is riding the wave of momentum it has built during the years. Phil Walden helps expose Otis Redding to the world, creates Capricorn Records and suddenly Macon becomes the place. Jermaine Dupri, Antonio Reid and Dallas Austin achieve massive success producing in Atlanta, young artists see that, they move here and continue the momentum. Except Macon never became the hub, Capricorn records faded before a brief revival, and the Macon magic drifted on down the road. Atlanta uber-artists like OutKast, Cee-Lo Green and T.I. didn’t move to the city to become stars, they just stayed home. And how do you explain Athens? It does have a superb downtown area with many terrific music venues and a tight knit college community, but then again so does Madison, Wisconsin, and the last big act from there was…um, we’ll get back to that. Michael Stipe, however, didn’t move to Athens because it was a musical powerhouse. He came for school and in the process made it one. So while Matthew Sweet may have moved to Athens to be a part of that scene, the scene first had to establish and to sustain itself so that new acts would have reason to move there.

Clearly there is something about the culture of the South that makes it a home for good music Sustainability may be the most impressive aspect of Georgia’s musical heritage. Decade after decade the state produces something big, and apart from the massive music centers mentioned, that’s a rare thing. Take Seattle, for instance. Everyone remembers the Grand Seattle explosion, with massive acts like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains arising. Underneath the most famous bands was a well-formed alternative music scene, headed by the Sub Pop label. Yet the grunge movement ran its course with only a few notable survivors, and Seattle returned to being a beautiful northwestern city with a nice local music scene but little else of national acclaim. Georgia refuses to run its course. Southern rock starts losing its steam? Here’s some new age college music you’ve never heard before. College rock becomes mainstream alternative? OK, here’s some of the biggest country acts of the 90’s. The East Coast/West Coast rap dynamic becomes tired? Here’s Goodie Mob and OutKast. The world of pop needs a new megastar? Maybe you’d be interested in some Usher. As my simple brain seemingly isn’t able to

handle the complexities of such a question like “Why Georgia?,” I asked Bret Love, music editor of Georgia Music Magazine (and no relation to Lisa Love) his thoughts on the subject. He has contributed to such publications as Rolling Stone, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Insight, Vapors, and Hip Hop DX. As an Atlanta native who has followed the scene as a fan, musician and writer, he seemed a good source. “When you examine the annals of music history,” said Bret Love, “nearly every great American form - with the exception of hip-hop – nearly every other great American music form has originated in the South. Blues, jazz, gospel, bluegrass, country, rock ‘n’ roll. Clearly there is something about the culture of the South that makes it a home for good music. And probably it’s related to the poverty that so many people in the South dealt with. What is it they say? Great art comes from tragedy.” A succinct and intelligent answer that does explain, at least partially, why this state initially thrived in the music industry, all the way back to the days of Ma Rainey. Located in the region of musical invention, it was inevitable that Georgia would play its part. And there is no doubt poverty and tragedy have inspired powerful art throughout history. It holds true for many newer acts that have risen from the urban ghettos of Atlanta. But how does that explain Trisha Yearwood and R.E.M.? Atlanta has been the “City too Busy to Hate” for a long time, and perhaps its diversity amid still tangible racial inequality and tension make it the perfect breeding ground for musicians of all colors. But what about Macon and Athens (and Augusta and Newnan and…)? Maybe it’s the food. It is delicious…and filling. Or the cicadas. They are melodious, in an annoying sort of way. Or the oak trees. Very inspirational, except for all the leaves you have to rake up in fall. Or maybe there really is something in the water. Is it possible we’re just soaking up the dregs of unlimited musical talent that washes our way each day? Unfortunately, my attempt to commission a multi-million dollar study of Georgia’s drinking water to determine its effect on music production has stalled in the Oz budgeting department. Maybe next month. In the end, the “why” probably doesn’t matter outside of one writer’s fascination with the topic. As long as it continues, the state will be happy, music lovers will be happy, and Lisa Love will have more and more exhibits to display at the Georgia Hall of Fame. As for me, I’ll just have to accept her answer as my own. Why Georgia?—I don’t know. www.ozonline.tv OZ MAGAZINE

GEORGIA SALES & USE TAX EXEMPTION Qualified film, video or music production companies utilizing Georgia for the production of motion pictures, made for television movies, television series, commercial television advertising, music videos or sound recordings may be eligible for a state sales and use tax exemption certificate. The exemption can be presented to a registered Georgia sales and use tax dealer when making purchases and rentals of qualified production equipment and services. Both state and local sales tax are included in this point of purchase exemption (up to 8 percent).

2008 GEORGIA ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY INVESTMENT ACT

• The foundation of the Act is a 20 percent investment tax credit. Production companies that spend a minimum of

$500,000 in the state on qualified production and post production expenditures in a single year are eligible for this credit. This includes most materials, services and labor. The 20 percent credit applies to both residential and out-of-town hires with a salary cap of $500,000 per person, per production, when the employee is paid by “salary,” which is defined as being paid by W2. If the production company uses a 1099 or a personal services contract to hire someone this limit does not apply.

• Provides an additional 10 percent tax credit if a production company includes a Georgia promotional logo in the qualified finished feature film, TV series, music video or video game project.

• Provides the same tax credits anywhere in the State of Georgia. • Provides the same tax credits to all instate and out-of-state labor working in Georgia. • Commercials and music videos are eligible for the 20 percent base tax credit once the production company has

spent a minimum of $500,000 on qualified expenditures during a single year. This may be through a single project or multiple projects.

• The tax credits apply to the company’s Georgia tax liability. Should the company have limited or no Georgia tax

liability, then the credit may be transferred or sold once to one or multiple Georgia-based companies to use against their tax liabilities.

• In addition to feature film and television production, the Act also includes other areas of original entertainment content creation including animation, interactive entertainment and video game development.

• Productions may also qualify to take advantage of Georgia’s Sales and Use Tax Exemption, a point-of-purchase sales tax exemption that saves you up to 8 percent on most purchases and rentals in the state.
