It's a chili tasting! Put

upper lip hair or maybe the entire upper lip!
Socialize and hang out with
your friends over your favorite brew and chili
samples discussing each selection's aroma, consistency,
blend of spices and flavor. For added entertainment,
tag your chili with a"special name"
to excite the taste buds! Everyone

from the most
deranged chili junkie to your ninety-eight-year-old
grandmother can enjoy tonight!
So grab your Tums and let the taste testing begin!

Some of the best singer
songwriters from around the state of Texas grace
the JPHH stage on the second Friday of each month.
The featured artists for this evening's showcase
are Robin
Kirby and swafo.
Robin Kirby:
Energetic and original, Robin is a powerful singer,
songwriter, musician and recording artist. She
write songs from her heart, singing them straight
from her soul. Music is her life and has been
a great escape for her. She likes to share her
life experiences with her fans through her songs.
Robin plays a twelve or six string guitar and
she blows a mighty, mean harmonica.
swafo:
swafo portrays his songs as, "I write songs
to help me make sense of and/or establish correlations
between strange and arcane patterns of life. Beauty
and order take care of themselves, but the weird
and ironic sometimes take awhile to accept and/or
let go."
Willie B: Willie
describes himself as a bluesy guitar player, but
he is so much more. He is a gifted and diverse
guitar player who writes and performs in many
musical genres. Willie writes and sings songs
around the people in his life. He has been a past
recipient of HFBSA's "Song of the Year"
and "Songwriter of the Year". Willie
has recorded four albums to date and is currently
working on his fifth solo project.
The Texas Songwriters' Showcase

you with colossal musical talent and wide-ranging
experience ... you will not be disappointed.

Hank
Woji Band
This Jersey born singer
songwriter has quietly been building a strong
catalog of work and an avid following since his

Folk Festival Songwriting Contest and the Suwannee
Springfest 2007 Songwriting Competition. His first
CD, Medallion, released
in 2005, combined elements of folk, blues, and
rock with Brasilian, Cuban, African and Indian
rhythms.
For both his songwriting
work and his performance on his second CD,
American Dreams, Hank has been nominated
for the 2009 Songer/Songwriter of the Year Award
by the Academy of Texas Music.

Shake
Russell Trio
From Bar Harbor, Maine
to Santa Fe, New Mexico; from Los Angeles, California
to Nashville, Tennessee, one can mention among
Texas songwriters, the name “Shake Russell”
and be virtually assured of interest, pleasure
and joyful recognition. If you’re a true
Texan, then Shake Russell’s music has touched
your life in some way. If you’re not, it
happened without your knowing it. Seventeen million
copies of this Texan’s songs have been bought
while being recorded by the likes of Clint Black,
Ricky Skaggs, Waylon Jennings, and others.
We are always thrilled when
Shake chooses to play our humble establishment.
This evening's performance will also feature Doug
Floyd on mandolin and Mike Roberts will contribute
bass. Please join us for what is always a great
"shakin" show.
Shake has twice received
the Entertainer of the Year Award from the Academy
of Texas Music Awards. In 2008 the award for Vocal
Group of the Year was awarded to Shake Russell
Band!
