The peaks and the valleys haven’t stopped– nor has the music. Great White’s ride runs deep and its passion for the music goes beyond any depth.

That arsenal of songs include the Grammy nominated Best Hard Rock Performance hit, “Once Bitten, Twice Shy,” Great White has sold over 10 million albums worldwide, has six Top 100 Billboard hits, nine Top 200 Billboard albums, two platinum albums, and clocked the top of MTV four times.

 

Meanwhile, at Scout Bar on Egret Bay Blvd, Letter Kills will captivate audiences with their unique blend of alternative rock. The intimate setting allowes fans to get up close and personal with the band, creating a memorable and immersive experience for everyone in attendance.

Away from the rock scene, MOCHA FEST HOUSTON 2024 kicks off at the DoubleTree by Hilton Houston Brookhollow. This multicultural festival celebrates art, music, and culture, drawing in a diverse crowd of locals and visitors alike. From live music performances to art showcases and culinary delights, MOCHA FEST will offer a vibrant tapestry of experiences for attendees to enjoy throughout the weekend.

As the night progresses, the Sounds of The City Music Series added to the musical tapestry, with Market Square Park becoming a hub of rhythmic melodies and lively beats. Music enthusiasts will gather under the stars, soaking in the atmosphere and reveling in the diverse sounds that echoes through this urban landscape.

In Houston, where the music scene is as diverse as its population, Friday night as always will be a testament to the city's vibrant cultural tapestry and the universal language of music that brings people together from all walks of life.
