Art Crawl offers a look inside Beaumont’s creative community

On any given day, Beaumont is home to artists working to bring beauty and creativity to the world. Most of the time, they toil away far from unsuspecting eyes. But the public will soon get a chance to visit a variety of venues as a group of creators open their doors. The second annual Downtown Beaumont Art Crawl is set for 2-6 p.m. Nov. 7. Artist Dario Bucheli, who has a studio at the new Calder Works art space, said the Art Crawl grew out of an idea for a few artists to introduce their work to the community. “We thought it would be a good thing to do for the community, for us to open our spaces and let people see what we're working on and make ourselves known,” he said. “At that time, I had just moved into my studio, and so we thought of including just a couple of us. Then the more we thought about it, the more I realized there's actually a lot more artists and cultural landmarks and participants in downtown and in the area around it than I think a lot of people know. So, we figured it would be a good idea

Pug Johnson – From A Beaumont Bar

There comes a point in most of our lives, definitely beyond our twenties, when something causes us to take stock of life-to-date. For some of us, past failures are the motivation to do better. For others, those failures are just an omen of things to come. For the remainder, hindsight is just an observation of lessons learned, sometimes on repeat. Beaumont native Pug Johnson seems to have followed that third arc on his newest album, From A Beaumont Bar, that could have been subtitled As Seen From A Barstool.

Born 96 Years Ago Today on the Texas Gulf Coast, the 50s Rock Legend Behind Novelty Hits and George Jones’ First No. 1

On this day (October 24) in 1930, Jiles Perry “J.P.” Richardson Jr. was born in Sabine Pass, Texas. Forever immortalized as “The Big Bopper”, he went on to become one of the early pioneers of rock and roll with beloved novelty hits like the self-penned “Chantilly Lace”. As much a songwriter as he was a singer and entertainer, Richardson also penned the classic track “White Lightnin’”, which a then little-known singer named George Jones took to the top of the charts in 1959. It marked the first of 13 career number-one hits for the country star.

Album Review – Pug Johnson’s “From a Beaumont Bar”

Honky Tonk (#510.2) on the Country DDS. It’s not uncommon these days for new country songs coming down the pike to sound like the country songs of old. We’ve been so fortunate to experience a rebirth of the tones and modes that originally made country music so great. But the problem is that so often, these songs still don’t feel like the songs of old. Even when they get the general sentiments right, they still don’t have the same pull on the soul of the old classics because the intent is to emulate instead of putting forth the effort to find new ways to express very old feelings and experiences.
