Jack Saunders is one of Houston's most dependable singer-songwriters and guitarists, and is rarely lacking for work.
Alongside Shake Russell, he was one-half of arguably the most popular folk duo around these parts for most of the '80s and into the '90s.
He has also released four albums of his own material, and seems to be picking up the pace -- his brand-new Grit & Jangle comes hot on the heels of last year's A Real Good Place to Start;
Saunders says the new album has "more of an emphasis on the rock side of folk and country."
As a sideman, Saunders has played with many top troubadors, including Ray Wylie Hubbard, Greg Trooper,
Randy Weeks, Susan Gibson, and Hayes Carll. I'm a huge fan of Greg Trooper and I clearly hear his influences in Jack's songs (or perhaps it's the other way around).
He has also produced and/or recorded dozens of titles at Houston's White Cat Recording, the studio Saunders opened in 1996.
