    Discovery Green and Capital One Bank present Thursday Concerts at Discovery Green. Thursdays, 6:30 p.m. - 9 p.m.  At the Anheuser-Busch Stage and Fondren Performance Center.

    Rock out on Thursdays at the park's free, family-friendly concerts featuring premier musicians from Texas and Louisiana. Blankets, lawn chairs and Picnics are welcome; food, beer and wine are sold at the Lake House. No glass containers or outside alcoholic beverages.

    Schedule of Performers:

    September 9 – Los Skarnales with opening act Karina Nistal
    Una buena fusion of ska, pachuco boogie, old school funk and rockabilly with a pinch of punk, Los Skarnales can barely be containedby any stage. Force of nature and band leader Filipe Galvan has the vertical leap of an NBA star, the style of a pachuco kingpin, and the pipes of a classic soul shouter.

    Karina Nistal, Houston native with a global sound and following, sets the tone with her pumping electro-Latin freestyle.

    September 16 – Cyril Neville & Tribe 13
    Cyril Neville is a dynamic, soulful vocalist who delivers the musical tradition of blending multiple musical genres into a uniquely New Orleans party sound. With tenures in the Neville Brothers and The Meters, or as a special guest of Galactic, Cyril always provides a tasty musical offering. In addition to numerous solo albums, Cyril has recorded with Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Dr. John,
    and many more classic artists.

    September 23 – Texas Tornados with opening act Los Pistoleros de Texas 
    The Texas Tornados play conjunto, rock and roll, country, and swamp pop - the sound and soul of Texas. The ultimate Tex-Mex supergroup marches onward starring world-renowned accordion master Flaco Jimenez, Augie Meyers, and Shawn Sahm, heir to the late, great Doug Sahm. Hey Baby Que Paso, Esta Beuno!

    The Wild Moccasins, on the vanguard of the Houston music scene and a sought-after export to other music towns, generate excitement and delight fans at home and on tour with their cleverly-constructed pop tunes. Say you saw them now before their constant touring, recording, and promoting hits a new level.

    The Mathletes reunite to support the Wild Moccasins tour kick-off party.

    October 7 is a week off. See you next week for Two Tons of Steel!
