Burn N Redd: A Dynamic Duo in the Mississippi Rock Scene
SUMMARY: Tony Burn and Rhiannon Redd, known as Burn N Redd, have become an iconic duo in the coastal rock, metal, and goth scene, performing in venues like The Juke Joint and The Cannery. Their journey began years back, with a chance meeting at Thunder’s Tavern when Redd was 18. Initially collaborating for a single performance, their partnership solidified in the Breaking Benjamin tribute band “Boys II Ben” in November 2021, where they discovered their musical chemistry. Their first performance as a duo was at The Cannery, leading to immediate success. They continue to evolve their setlists, appeal to a wide audience with their unique sound, and share a preference for female-led bands. Their story is not just about music but overcoming personal challenges and building a deep connection with their audience through shared experiences and powerful messages in their songs.

SUMMARY: Feeding wildlife can be enjoyable, but it’s important to remember that many animals can find their own food and may become dependent on human assistance. Instead of feeding them directly, consider planting native plants that provide natural food sources like fruits, seeds, and insects. Examples include Wax Myrtle, Yaupon Holly, and American Beautyberry. For nectar-feeding birds, try Coral Honeysuckle or Red Buckeye. Creating a no-mow zone, brush piles, and other habitats can also provide shelter and food. While occasional feeding is fine, avoid processed foods, and opt for natural options like nuts for squirrels and fruits for turtles.

For those struggling during the holidays, sharing holiday cheer with a gift or an invitation can mean a lot.
