Today: A Continuation of the Augusta Rocks Mini Series Highlighting Local Music. This episode features Red Fox Wood, a group from Aiken that includes 3 multi talented musicians who consider themselves to be brothers (2 of them actually are!). Not only do they perform great covers and gather crowds of various backgrounds, but they also record and produce their own original music. The relationships that form Red Fox Wood began with religion, and their original music still holds those tones.

Today: The return of our friend, and presenter (!), Nancy Powell. Nancy is a local real estate agent and broker. In 2020, she took over her family's business, Powell & Associates, and basically rebuilt the company from the ground up. We originally interviewed her in 2019 for our episode: The Real (E)State of Augusta, and this week we caught up with her to talk about the process of refreshing her family business. More importantly, though, we talk about her new ventures: going All In on philanthropy in Augusta!
