The Savannah Music Festival, a cornerstone of the city’s vibrant cultural landscape, is ushering in a new era with Sinisa Ciric as its new President and CEO. Ciric steps into a role poised for a “refresh” as the festival builds towards its monumental 40th anniversary. Ciric’s transition has been a whirlwind, moving from his general […]

Two things most folks who’ve spent a decent amount of time in Savannah over the past three decades could likely agree upon (with varying degrees of excitement) would be this city’s extreme lack of both live music venues with professional quality sound systems and stage lighting, and places for adults to engage in moderate-level physical […]

It’s 2:00 PM and the sun is bleaching Savannah’s cobblestones. A candy-apple-red and state-green trolleybus rattles past the Colonial Park Cemetery. Inside, two ‘morons’ in matching blue-and-green printed overalls and headbands lean into their microphones, their grins wide enough to bridge the Savannah River, start to talk to a mix of bewildered tourists and grinning […]

There’s something about spring in Savannah. The breeze is just soft enough to make you forget about the humidity creeping around the corner, and Forsyth Park—our communal backyard—becomes the scene of something beautifully temporary. On Saturday, April 26, it’ll happen again: chalk will hit concrete, creativity will run wild, and for a few hours, Savannah […]

Jason Isbell closed out the Savannah Music Festival at the Mercer Theatre with a performance that resonated with “power, conviction, and elegance,” a fitting culmination to the festival’s diverse lineup. Isbell, a figure both “honest and intimidating,” held the audience captive, a man who, despite his intense presence, “opens his heart for everyone.” You do […]

Randall Patrick sees it. A photographer by instinct and necessity, Randall isn’t out here chasing the perfect sunset shot over River Street or the clichéd Spanish Moss covered live oak trees that tourists drool over. His Savannah is a little rougher around the edges. And yet, somehow, it’s hopeful too. “I like to see things […]

Last night, I finally got it. I’d seen Billy Strings before. Maybe I was distracted. Maybe I was just a tourist in the jamgrass galaxy. But April 11 at Enmarket Arena changed that. I stayed for the entire set this time—and now I understand. Billy Strings isn’t just a musician. He’s a unicorn. Let’s break […]

It’s 3:12 AM in Savannah, On the tail end of River Street, the bars have spilled out their last songs and sinners. Neon’s beginning to flicker tired, and somewhere in the historic district, the ghosts are rolling over for a second nap. But at Bandana Burgers, the grill is still hot, the fryers are still […]

Nestled within the Thompson Savannah Hotel in Savannah, Georgia, Fleeting restaurant is redefining the dining experience with its rotating pop-up series. We spoke with Director of Restaurants, Bars, Entertainment & Culinary Experience, Brittany Hahn, about this initiative which celebrates culinary creativity, local talent, and an ever-evolving menu that keeps diners coming back for more. “The […]

As the late Joan Rivers routinely asked, “Can we talk?” Let’s be honest. We’ve likely all been there. You’re ready, willing and able to enjoy a standup comic’s show. It could be taking place in a small or large club, a swanky theater, a cavernous arena or merely on TV. The comic is decent ―maybe […]

Nestled in a historic 1928 gas station, Baby’s General Store has opened its doors in Baldwin Park, blending nostalgia with community spirit. General Manager Katherine Dagen describes the store as “your old school classic corner store,” but with a modern twist. “We’re not just somewhere to grab and go; we’re a community hangout,” she says, […]

When it comes to music, do you consider yourself an adventurous listener? Do you have “big ears”? If you answered yes to either of the questions above, you should make plans now to be standing as close to the low stage at downtown’s El Rocko Lounge as humanly possible this upcoming Monday night, March 31, […]

Walking into Birria Spot feels like stepping into a crossroads of cultures. The menu is unapologetically rooted in Mexican tradition—birria tacos dripping with consommé—but there’s a whisper of Asian influence here too: bao buns stuffed with birria, ramen infused with smoky chili oils. It’s fusion without gimmickry, the kind of culinary marriage that makes sense […]

Foxtail Coffee Company has officially opened its doors in Savannah, Georgia, at 601 Indian Street. Situated inside the stylish Olmsted Apartments and just across from Service Brewery, this café is designed to be an all-day hangout for locals, students, and visitors alike. With its open-air seating and inviting ambiance, we have a feeling that Foxtail […]
