Butch Morgan
emptypixels
Never let it be said that Claude "Butch" Morgan isn't passionate about life. His songs are often spiritual in nature, but they're full of fun and carry simple but powerful messages.
emptypixels
Butch Morgan has an ability to take life's simplicity and put a striking message inside in the form of a song, a great example being his "God Drives A Pick-up Truck". Morgan's "Blubberball" attests to all that can go wrong when you don't take care of yourself, and is a song performed entirely with one chord. As Butch says, "It starts off in G, then goes to G for the solos, then we wrap it up in G."

Do NOT miss this show ... Butch's wonderful character and humorous rapport onstage will have you laughing for sure.

Hank Woji CD Release Party
This Jersey born singer songwriter has quietly been building a strong catalog of work and an avid following since his move from Manhattan to Houston. Hank's music draws compar-isons to Arlo Guthrie and Cat Stevens. He was recently a finalist in the 2007 South Florida 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.
Hank’s latest effort is pure Americana! With song styles ranging from Bluegrass and country through folk, blues and rock & roll, Hank paints an insightful portrait of our fast fading American dream. Featuring an 'All Star Cast' of Houston based musicians, including Ken Gaines, Jack Saunders, TC Smythe, Jeff Duncan and Mark Zeus,  American Dreams will inspire you to “raise your voices for justice and peace”. Performing onstage tonight with Hank are Thomas Heltom on doublebass, Mike Mizma on drums and Mark Zeus on mandolin.
