Augusta Amusements Big Band

In following with business practices of the original 1931 Augusta Amusements organization the idea recently surfaced of staging a big band that would consist predominately of local musicians. Augusta’s heritage has been built by famed musicians such as James Brown, Terri Gibbs, Josh and Charles Kelley, Dave Heywood, Brenda Lee, Arthur Lee Simpkins, Jessye Norman and countless others that were residents of our community.

After forty-one years, Augusta Amusements has been resurrected with a focus on bringing quality, family-friendly, world-class entertainment to the community while following the business practices of the original company’s founders. Augusta Amusements was always noted for its community-mindedness and charitable activities.  Over the years, it donated countless thousands of dollars to a wide variety of community groups and individuals in need. The company focused on encouraging local talent while providing a stage for young entertainers to display their talents.
