Moonhanger Group

The Moonhanger Group is the parent company of the Rookery, Dovetail, H&H, Moonhanger Catering, and Cox Capitol Theatre. Moonhanger Group is owned by Wes Griffith and Chad Evans, who are both local enthusiasts and have been in the service industry and entertainment field all of their lives. Wes and Chad bought the Rookery in September of 2009, and through a very hands-on approach to re-invigorating the Rookery, a Macon institution since 1976, they began to create a culture and atmosphere that has become the Moonhanger Group. Wes and Chad share an enthusiastic vision of Macon with great reverence to the diverse history of the city and especially the music and arts. While running the Rookery together, we began to notice how our personalities and visions affected our folks, that our people were our greatest asset, and that a lively downtown was an idea that excited a lot of people.
