Shake
Russell with
The
Fowler Brothers
The
legendary Texas singer songwriter Shake Russell
again takes to the stage at JP Hops House with
The
Fowler Brothers
as his band. The "boyz" have
accompanied Shake a couple of times recently,
both shows top-notch. This past October's presentation
really was a whole lot of fun, as was their
first show last March, they had stepped in to
accompany
Shake when fellow performer Michael Hearne was
unable to make the performance. Their combined
effort proves to be a rockin' good time for
all ... audience and performers. Join us for
what promises to be another great "shakin"
show.

Ken
Gaines &
Karen
Mal
Featured in Mississippi Coast Magazine, writer
Max Biedenharn describes Ken Gaines as: “A
singer/songwriter with a beautifully clear voice
and articulate guitar accompaniment, Ken has played
and studied a lot of music, but it’s obvious
that he’s also studied himself and his craft
and is committed to finding what’s original
and at the same time, universal in his experiences.”
|
|
|
In
three short years, Karen Mal has gone from a virtual
unknown on the Austin acoustic music scene (she
originally hails from New England, although she
has spent time in places from Manhattan to Memphis,
from Wisconsin to California), to one of the most
sought-after performers around, both as a solo artist
and as a sideman for others on mandolin, guitar,
and harmony vocals.

Steve
Brooks &
Saylor
White
& Chris
Collins
Celebrate
the art and the heart of songwriting with three
great MTM Award nominees.
Mild-mannered,
Austin-based Steve Brooks is a folksinger/humorist
with the energy of a Texas twister and eclectic
songs that range from the sublime to the ridiculous
and back. He never loses his sense of fun, even
when touching the most serious subjects. If there's
a common thread to Steve's songs, it's about looking
at the world from a slightly different angle than
the one you're used to, or from several angles
at once. Steve puts it a bit more poetically,
"A single new star rearranges a whole constellation."
East
Texas born writer of songs, poetry and short stories,
Saylor has written over two thousand songs in
his thirty years of word crafting, including "Dress
of Lace" recorded and performed by Nanci
Griffith and Lyle Lovett.
 |
| |
"...
few writers we have ever heard can knit
pieces so masterful as Saylor White."
~ Crossroads Magazine, France |
|
Chris
Collins is a relative newcomer to the music scene
in Houston, but he is quickly turning heads. He
was chosen as one of the top ten regional singer
songwriters at the 2002 Kerrville Folk Festival.
Chris has a style all his own, a pleasant blend
of his easy guitar style and his clear smooth
voice.
Come
out and enjoy the evening with us and these three
talented performers ... music to lighten the spirit
and blow the mind.
