Rock + Candy: the Macon Music Story

He was born into a legacy of bon-bons, macaroons and the sweet life of candy manufacturing. She was raised in the shadows of rhythm and blues and after-shocks of southern rock. Together, they grew up in the town of Macon, Georgia that they never knew how much they loved until they fell in love with each other.

In 2011, Jessica Walden and Jamie Weatherford founded Rock Candy Tours, a music history tour company that showcases the legacy of Macon, Georgia’s rich music history. Once home to artists like Little Richard, Otis Redding, James Brown and the Allman Brothers Band, Macon was listed among legendary studio engineer Tom Dowd’s “Five M’s” of music towns, joined by Manhattan, Miami, Memphis and Muscle Shoals. They believe Macon’s storied music history doesn't have to live in a museum, but already existed on its sidewalks, street corners, historic structures and if the walls could talk, they would sing.
