We’ve got a good one for you Wednesday night.

Phil Hamilton is bringing his soulful, Texas-country sound to the Big Top for his first show with us, and we’re pretty excited about this one.

If you like your country music with a little grit, a little soul, and a whole lot of Texas, come hang out with us. Phil has shared stages with some serious Texas music heavyweights, but Wednesday night it’s just him, his songs, and the Big Top.

🍻 4PM — Happy Cappy Hour starts
No Cover until 7PM
🚪 7PM — Doors
🎸 8PM — Phil Hamilton

🎟️ $10 advance / $15 day of show
Advance tickets are available and recommended. https://continentalclub.com/bigtop

📍 Shoeshine Charley’s Big Top Lounge
3714 Main St • Houston

Come grab a drink, settle in, and spend Wednesday night with us. 🖤

Post motherhood, this has been a good example of my process with my expressionistic works. ⁣
⁣
Slow, methodical, layered, and textured. Extremely present, acutely aware in the moment of what I’m thinking and feeling within the moment. Each reaction, each impulse is inspired from that state.⁣
⁣
Creating is a means of transmuting energy, and I enjoy it so much.⁣
