Second Studio Album on Color Vinyl LP!
El Cabron is the second studio album from Texas-based country artist, Pug Johnson. The songs on El Cabron are simple yet three-dimensional, offering vivid glimpses into the stories and thoughts of characters who all tend to run on pure instinct, unable to escape their own depravity, all the while displaying a deep sense of self-awareness. Intertwining personal stories with fiction, Pug explores themes of corruption, desire, perseverance, love, loss, and then love again.
Pulling from a wide variety of musical genres prevalent in the Southeast Texas region he calls home, Pug effortlessly mixes Tejano, Zydeco, Texas Swing, Honky-Tonk, R&B, Dixieland, and down-home Rock and Roll — all behind a voice that is pure Country.
Imagine if John Prine were a Texan. That's how Pug Johnson is often described. The Beaumont, Texas-bred up-and-comer arrives fitted with a similar wit and charm as the legendary singer-songwriter, armed with the same storytelling chops and ability to turn a sharp phrase into words to live by.
