Upcoming Amphitheatre Events

Hank Williams Jr. – On Sale Now!
Dates : 3/3/2012 12:01:00 AM

The St. Augustine Amphitheatre’s first concert of 2012 will be Country Legend Hank Williams Jr. With an already impressive line up with acts including Toby Bennett, Former President Bill Clinton, & The Moody Blues, the 2012 concert season is shaping up to be an exciting one. Stay tuned for more concert announcements in the up coming weeks.

The Hank Williams name is engrained into Country Music. The offspring of famous musicians often have a hard time creating a career for themselves, yet Hank Williams, Jr. is one of the few to develop a career that is not only successful, but markedly different from his legendary father. Originally, Hank Jr. simply copied and played his father’s music, but as he grew older, he began to carve out his own niche and it was one that owed as much to country-rock as it did to honky tonk. In the late ’70s, he retooled his image to appeal both to outlaw country fans and rowdy Southern rockers, and his makeover worked, resulting in a string of Top Ten singles — including the number one hits “Texas Women,” “Dixie on My Mind,” “All My Rowdy Friends (Have Settled Down),” “Honky Tonkin’,” and “Born to Boogie” — that ran into the late ’80s.

Hank Jr. never was above capitalizing on his father’s name, yet his tributes and name-dropping often seemed affectionate, not crass. Also, Bocephus — as his father nicknamed him when he was a child — was a passionate cheerleader for patriotic American values. All of these actions helped make him an American superstar during the ’80s, becoming one of the most recognizable popular culture figures of the era. As new country took over the airwaves in the ’90s, Williams slowly disappeared from the charts and his concerts stopped selling as well as they did ten years earlier, yet he retained a devoted core audience throughout the decade. –Allmusic.com

The oceanfront property that the Beachfront Bed & Breakfast rests on today was developed in 1927 by an attorney and his wife who enjoyed vacationing in St. Augustine Beach. The acreage stretched from the Atlantic Ocean to Florida’s famous State Highway A1A and was comprised of the main home, cottage, greenhouse and a horse stable.

The home was built on a foundation of coquina, a Spanish sedimentary rock, which is well known for its durability and strength. The exterior made of cypress timber and placed on a diagonal, makes the home very strong which is great for its oceanfront location. A sea wall that is located 40 feet East of the main house and natural sand dunes add protection from the occasional coastal storms. 

When the attorney passed away the property was sold to a local St. Augustine family. The Gebert’s owned the home for many years, leaving behind a few family reminiscences which include pencil marks on the kitchen wall that show the varying heights of the children as they got older. During the 1980’s and early 1990’s the cottage and first floor of the home were rental units known as “Sandy Land.” The Gebert’s sold the estate in 1998, which is when it was transformed into a bed & breakfast.

The current owners, Lauren & Rich O’Brien met in 2001 at our sister property, La Fiesta Inn & Suites and were married in 2003. They purchased the B & B in 2005 and are also owners of the adjacent sister property. Lauren O’Brien grew up in the Chicago suburbs and has been visiting St. Augustine Beach since she was a child. Lauren has a background in sales and hospitality, and has been an active leader in an effort to replenish St. Augustine Beach with protective sand fencing. Rich O’Brien lived in New England and Indiana prior to moving to Florida in the mid 1980’s and he has spent most of his adult life in the hospitality business.  Both Lauren and Rich enjoy gardening and exploring new destinations together, making the ownership of these two beautiful properties a perfect fit!

B & B Co-owner Lauren is shown here after catching "the big one", a Wahoo, off the coast of St. Augustine Beach on the boat, "Ring Leader". Husband Rich and Lauren's cousin Randy had their hand at 2 Marlins which were the big ones that got away.
