Billy Bourbon Trio
Billy Bourbon is a singin’, songwritin’, country bluesman, son-of-a-@#$%. His songs are laced with women, whiskey and weed. Songs about birthdays and death; first loves and shooting your lover dead; suicide and raising kids; Billy covers it all. This is rockin’ Texas outlaw country at its best.
If you like Jerry Jeff Walker, Commander Cody, Guy Clark, John Prine, Jason Boland, Cross Canadian Ragweed, you'll dig Billy Bourbon.
Billy knows countless songs, and crafts his shows to suit the audience at hand, whether it’s rowdy college kids or their equally rowdy elders. As a lead guitarist he has shared the stage with Chris Duarte, Son Seals, Mason Ruffner, Jimmy Thackery, Smokin’ Joe Kubek, Rockin’ Jake, Tinsley Ellis, Papa Chubby, Dave Hole, Bernard Ellison, and countless others, while hosting a weekly Jam Night in a club he later came to own. As Billy puts it, “I jam, therefore I am”.
The current Billy Bourbon Band features veteran Texas musician Tom Rodgers on Bass, and Greg Babineaux on the Drums. Together they have a show that is funny, entertaining, and sells drinks!!!
It smells like country, tastes like rock-n-roll, and has creamy blues in the middle. Come and getcha some!!!!

White Beets
Mark Beets and Saylor White, two of the Houston area's most esteemed singer
songwriters, have joined forces to become the
White Beets. To their honor thus far, the duo
was a winner at the Songwriters Serenade in 2009;
individually Beets and White have each released
award winning CDs, plus both have penned songs
recorded by other artists.
East Texas born writer of
songs, poetry and short stories, Saylor White has written over two thousand songs in his better
than thirty years of word crafting, including
"Dress of Lace" recorded and performed
by Nanci Griffith and Lyle Lovett. Saylor is an
amazing and prolific songwriter with a musical
sense that comes as natural to him as breathing.
He is co-owner of A
Songwriters Studio in Houston, Texas.
Mark Beets has a sound which has been called "Organic
Americana". It's fresh, different from most
of the stuff out there today. In 2003 Long
Ago & Many Days, Mark's debut
collection of songs, was produced by White Cat
Productions and Beets was a finalist in the Wildflower
Festival songwriting competition. Mark's song
"The Road's Not Long Enough" was selected as the
lead single on The Houston Association of Acoustic
Musicians' first compilation CD. |
