Jack
Saunders with
Rick Poss
Jack Saunders has been a part of the Texas music
scene since the 70’s. In recent years Jack
has garnered Best Acoustic Honors from the Houston
Press Music Awards; in 1998, 1999 and 2001, plus
he was nominated in multiple categories, and won
the 2000 "Critic's Choice" award for
overall excellence in writing and performance.
|
| |
"The
good writers are storytellers. They’ve
got a good eye for detail and a gift for
language. Jack Saunders is at that
level. It’s in the little details;
[His are] songs that any tunesmith would
be proud to have written. No doubt about
it: this is a major league songwriter."

"Rick
Poss is the guitarist I was raving about.
It's a rare guitarist, in my experience,
that can hide out and play rhythm or whatever,
then reach out and grab you by the throat
with his playing when it's his turn to take
the floor. This cat is a cat. Beautiful,
just beautiful. "

David
Brake & That Damn Band
featuring Scott McGill
Texas
y’alternative?
Well ... is it country? Alternative rock? Adult
contemporary? A modern Texas blues hybrid? –
The answer is yes. "It’s all about the
song," explains David, "I
like that it can’t be categorized... It just
depends on the song."
Opening set provided tonight by Tom Tranchilla.

Preacher
Boy with Collin
Brooks
|
| "If
you've ever seen Preacher Boy perform solo,
whether supporting Eagle-Eye Cherry throughout
the world or any of Preacher Boy's US or European
tours, then you know how much vibe he can
generate with just the raw emotion of his
voice, the keening of his slide on his vintage
National, and the thump and brush of his fingers
picking steel strings." ~
preacherboy.com |
|
|
|
|
| If
not, you're in for a treat when Preacher Boy,
on
a short break from supporting Charlie Mussellwhite
on tour,
takes to the stage at JP Hops House. We
welcome the Brooklyn-based artist
as he crisscrosses the country promoting his
fifth, full-length CD, Demanding To Be Next.
Also, make sure to look (rather listen) for
Preacher Boy's vocal contribution to An Area
Big Enough To Do It In, the Prophet Omega
cut on the upcoming Columbia Records' Queer
Eye For The Straight Guy soundtrack. |
|
| |
"Preacher
Boy is somewhat like Keb' Mo' in his jazzing
up of Delta blues styles, but with a more contemporary
sound akin to Kelly Joe Phelps or Chris Whitley.
The best cuts highlight his wonderful work on
National Steel." ~ Rolling Stone Jazz
and Blues Album Guide |
|
| |
"Preacher
Boy crosses the traditional country blues of
haunted legends like Robert Johnson and Son
House with a modern, rock-inlfuenced perspective
similar to Jon Spencer or Jack White of The
White Stripes, branding the sound with his own
distinctive mark."
~
All-Music Guide |

Joining
in on this evening's festivities is Austin,
Texas songwriter Collin Brooks, an excellent
slide guitarist in his own right.

Brian
Kalinec
with Jeff Chambers
Come on over tonight and help us welcome
the return of Brian Kalinec together with newcomer
Jeff Chambers. Although Brian has previously performed
at JPHH, this is his debut appearance in the lead
role.
|
"In
early 2002, Brian teamed up with Jeff Chambers,
a Houston singer-songwriter-guitarist. Jeff
and Brian trade off songs, original and cover
tunes, as well as lead guitar licks. Jeff
and Brian have performed at local Houston
venues..., as well as private parties. Brian
also returns to Beaumont once a month to perform
with Rick Danna at Cody's. Brian is currently
recording his debut CD."
~
briankalinec.com |
|
| |
"Kalinec
has been playing around Houston and writing
songs going all the way back to the late '60s,
and he has a deft touch with a lyric and an
above-average amount of wise leavening gained
in the school of experience and living. "
