This list names those who breezed through town. Of course, the list would be a lot longer if we included all the big names who own homes here, like Stephen Colbert and Darius Rucker, or the folks who are often in town for work... like musicians playing at Credit One or the cast of tv shows “Righteous Gemstones” and “Outer Banks.”
