Texas Songwriter Showcase
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 Larry Selpulvado and Gary Seber.
Larry Selpulvado: A renowned local Houston musician and talented songwriter, Larry grabs your attention with his foot stompin' tunes. In November, Larry will be celebrating the release of his new album, 'cajun cats, creole dogs' - songs of Americana, rootsy, Cajun swamp rock!
Gary Seber: When you first hear Gary play, you may find it impossible to believe that you're hearing just one musician! He has studied the "acoustic percussive fingerstyle" of Preston Reed with it's two-handed fretboard attack. Gary's debut CD, entitled Candle Power, features the highly innovative but little-known technique of playing the neck of an open-tuned guitar, coaxing an amazing abundance of sound from the solo instrument.
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 is the longest running showcase in Houston. These songwriters will take to the stage to entertain you with colossal musical talent and wide-ranging experience ... you will not be disappointed.

Hank Woji
& Brian Mullins
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 comparisons to Arlo Guthrie and Cat Stevens. He was 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. For his work on Medallion, Hank was nominated for the 2006 Producer of the Year Award, by the Academy of Texas Music. His next album is currently in production.
Joining Hank onstage tonight is Brian Mullins, a newcomer to the JPHH stage.
Tonight's performance will be a "Live CD Recording". So, we need help from our awesome audience for the applause and cheering that you guys are so darn good at providing!
