Tish's Planet

San Antonio native Tish Hinojosa now calls Hamburg, Germany, home, but she has not forgotten her roots. Hinojosa is in Texas for a few days and will give a free show 7-9 p.m. Thursday at the new My Place Bar and Grille, 29094 U.S. 281 N. in Bulverde, the old Ferdie's site. Multi-instrumentalist Troy Wells will work with her.

Hinojosa's latest CD is Our Little Planet. The disc is a return to the music Hinojosa wrote and recorded in the '80s: country music marked by smart words and some twang. In a June interview, Hinojosa said the disc was inspired, in part, by nostalgia and a bit of homesickness. The songs aren't complicated, but they feature plenty of harmony vocals and Texas country soul.

My Place Bar and Grille is owned by David Lozano, who managed the Chuy's on Broadway (now Soluna) when the place was a Thursday evening live-music hot spot.
