Southern rock legends Stillwater reunite after seven years for Perry show
BONAIRE, Ga. — The sound that once helped put middle Georgia on the Southern rock map is headed back to the stage, as Stillwater reunites after seven years away. Formed in Warner Robins in 1973, Stillwater came together as Southern rock was carving out a national spotlight. Members Mike Causey, Bobby Golden, Al Scarborough and Rob Walker, along with other bandmates, already knew one another from playing in other local groups. That hometown network eventually carried them to Capricorn Records in Macon, linking Stillwater to a Georgia music legacy that includes some of the genre’s biggest names.
