Savannah is known for many things: it’s history, architecture, and even the charm showcased by its residents. One thing people don’t think of immediately when they think of Savannah is music. The music scene in Savannah is growing but has been on the map for years including such notables from Savannah as Big Boi (Outkast) and DJ Lord (Public Enemy). We take a look at some of Savannah’s most popular and fastest growing musicians and give you an insight as to who they are and their influence.

Charles Davis is a Georgia native, hailing originally from Macon. He now resides in Guyton, GA and is the proprietor of The Earth Comfort company which specializes in renewable energy and is based in Savannah. His prefabricated home is an example of the renewable energy and efficient ways to build and run a house. His interest in the field began in Washington, D.C. when he saw an example of the efficiency of geothermal heat pumps. He has used his interest and specialization to showcase his work on buildings such as FSU’s Sustainable Energy Science and Engineering Center and UGA’s Marine Extension Service in Brunswick. This begs the question: Is Charles Davis the most efficient man in Georgia?

The housing bubble collapse, which began in 2006, represented an end to business for many people in the real estate market but not all of them. One such group, Judge Realty, started off at an unfortunate time but made the best of it.

Judge Realty, as a result, began to diversify their specialities and now count property management as one of their biggest earners with over 200 properties. This goes to show that even someone new to the game can survive the “jungle” of the real estate market.
