7. Macon, GA - the birthplace of southern rock? I want this to be #1, but it's been so long since the Allman Bros and Marshall Tucker, my heroes as a small child.
No No No.
The birthplace of southern rock is Jacksonville FL. Where the Allman brothers actually formed along with
Lynyrd Skynyrd

The Allman Brothers were born in Nashville, where they formed their love for music and where they learned to play. Also, they got their first gig as a house band at a bar in Nashville called the Briar Patch. Also, their first recordings were done in Nashville.

The Allman Brothers grew up in Fla but they moved to Macon, recorded there and became famous there. The “Big House” where they lived is now a Allman Brothers museum. Greg and Cher lived in Macon for much of their marriage. Today Dwayne,Greg, and Barry Oakley are all buried side by side in Macon’s historic Rose Hill cemetery. They may have been born in Daytona but they claimed Macon as their home and chose it as their final resting place.
Lynyrd Skynyrd spend a lot of time in Macon. Recorded much of their music there.
I’m not sure about Marshall Tucker. I wasn’t a big fan and I don’t know much about their history.
