Bonham, Texas -- Creative Arts Center in Bonham was the place to be Thursday night when Watusi took the stage to kick off the Music in the Garden free concert series. A large crowd filled the garden as Jimi "Watusi" Towry treated his hometown to a performance that felt like a homecoming with a reggae soundtrack.
