past participants of the Big Squeeze, the annual youth accordion contest. These talented young musicians will take the stage, showcasing their prowess and keeping the tradition alive and kicking.
On the evening of Sunday, June 2nd, 2024, the pulsing heart of Houston's live music scene—the House of Blues—will resonate with the compelling beats and raw storytelling of Ibrahim Muhammed Dodo, better known by his stage name 
Hunxho. The acclaimed rapper, a storyteller at his core, brings to Houston an electrifying blend of grit and rhythm that promises to captivate the city's diverse audience.
Hunxho, born on June 22, 1999, in Greensboro, North Carolina, has seen a meteoric rise in the hip hop community since his breakout hit "Let's Get It" in 2021. This track, which later featured a remix with 21 Savage, marked the beginning of his ascent in the music industry. It's a journey of perseverance, beginning in the streets of East Atlanta, where Hunxho crafted his art amid the echoes of his inspirations—icons like Young Thug and Gucci Mane.
