Connie Mims & Mark Beets
Connie began her musical career in Houston in 1973 as a part of the group Wheatfield which evolved into St. Elmo's Fire, performing everywhere from the Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin, to The Troubadour in Los Angeles, to St. Croix, USVI. She has appeared on the PBS series Austin City Limits and in the classic Blue Bell Ice Cream commercial known as Texas Musicians. Most recently Connie, along with other members of Wheatfield, has released a new self-titled CD. In addition to performing her own compositions, Connie enjoys performing music from Bonnie Raitt, Radney Foster, Kim Richey, Joni Mitchell and other well-known and not so well-known songwriters.
Mark has a sound which has been called "Organic Americana". According to Ken Gaines, fellow musician, "Mark's music will sneak up on you. One minute you're listening politely and the next minute you're either laughing or crying your eyes out." It's fresh, different from most of the stuff out there today. Long Ago & Many Days is Mark's debut collection of songs produced by White Cat Productions.

Texas Songwriters' Showcase
Some of the best singer songwriters from around the state of Texas grace the JPHH stage on
the second Friday of each month. Unfortunately, Chris Chandler and David Roe who were originally scheduled had to cancel, but we are extremely pleased to announce that Stan Hatch & Paul McCann will be the featured artists for this evening's showcase.
Stan and Paul: This duo first came to us at an open mic and had instant fans! Since then, they have been a feature music act at Mudbug Madness 2005 and Spudstock IV. Stan and Paul showcase their talent and personalities through the humorous songs their write, such as "The National Bank of Dad". In addition to their songwriting, Paul is an amazing magician and usually works in a little abracadabra during the night. They tickle my funny bone and will do the same for you!
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 won "Song of the Year" and "Songwriter of the Year" in HFBSA. Willie has recorded four albums to date.
Jen Rathbun: A Platinum Plus Universal recording artist with 2 CDs to her credit, Jen sings and writes multi-faceted compositions loaded with personality. She's a pro at tickling the ivories, and she'll tickle your fancy as well.
