(From All Music.com-Richard Skelly) Guitarist, singer, and songwriter Tab Benoit makes his home near New Orleans in Houma, Louisiana. Born November 17, 1967, he's one of a handful of bright rising stars on the modern blues scene. For most of the 1990s and into the 2000s, he's worked each of his records the old-fashioned way, by playing anywhere and everywhere he and his band can play. Unlike so many others before him, Benoit understands that blues is not a medium in favor with 50,000-watt 
commercial rock radio stations, so as a consequence, he's combined each of his releases with as many shows as he can possibly play. Since the release of his first album for Justice, Benoit has taken his brand of Cajun-influenced blues all over the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Nice and Warm, his debut album for Houston-based Justice Records, prompted some critics to say he was sometimes reminiscent of three blues guitar gods: Albert King, Albert Collins, and Jimi Hendrix.
Special guests will be The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, arguably the most influential ensemble to emerge in New Orleans over the last 25 years. Its sway on the brass band scene has been staggering, spawning bands like the ReBirth, New Birth, Hot 8, Li’l Rascals, Soul Rebels and just about every other 
young brass ensemble presently performing.
Formed in 1977, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band are the pioneers of the modern New Orleans brass band movement, recognized worldwide as an unstoppable musical machine whose name is synonymous with genre bending romps and high octane performances. They have been featured guests both in the studio and on stage with artists including Elvis Costello, Dr. John, Widespread Panic, Modest Mouse, Dave Matthews Band, The Black Crowes and many others.
Houston's Philharmonic's pops orchestra will be doing their annual tribute to Halloween in The Woodlands this weekend. The Houston Symphony always finds new means of amazing at Hocus Pocus Pops. Sometimes they play Halloween classics or put a spin on a song you’d never have thought to be 
Halloween-y. And sometimes they play something altogether unexpected – and yet altogether wonderful. The highlight of the night, though, has to be the Goblin Parade. Watching hundreds of costumed kids prance and dance across The Pavilion’s Main Stage provides an unmatched bliss. As the crowd roars and parents snap a hundred quick pics, the Symphony accompanies the kids with yet another grandly terrifying tune.
Diavolo presents a fusion of extreme modern dance, acrobatics and gymnastics this weekend at Jones Hall. The dancers perform on and around Diavolo’s meticulously designed architectural structures.

Records, including 2011's dynamic In the Pit of the Stomach, which marked their first entry onto the U.K. charts. The group toured rigorously over the next several years, releasing one more album for Fat Cat before switching to Big Scary Monsters for 2018's more mature The More I Sleep, The Less I Dream.

This weekend it's Phabo in the Bronze Peacock at Houston's House of Blues.
(From Vice.com) Growing up, Phabo's pursuit of music was as scattered as the places he called home. Born in San Diego, where his parents gifted him with a red drum set, he moved to St. Petersburg, Florida by the time he was eight, then relocated to Long 
Beach, California at 16. Cycling through drum, piano, and guitar lessons, he eventually found a musical home in his school’s jazz band, playing the clarinet. “Walking with that case from class to class was so square,” he says. Although he could sing, indulging that talent felt socially awkward. “I started to shy away from that, but I wanted to be ‘the man,’” he says. “In order to be the man at that time, you had to rap. Nobody has a doo-wop circle at lunch.”
