Houston is a blues scene, certainly a rhythm and blues scene at that. But this is also one of the birthplaces of zydeco, that ever-changing, fast-paced Creole folk music, or, rather, that synthesis of Creole music, Cajun, and traditional African-American styles. It’s a little bluesy, a little jazzy, a little bayou, a little bit of everything. Perhaps curiously, the best place in Houston to hear zydeco is not at one of your usual music venues, but rather at Catholic church dances. The other big music style in Houston is actually hip-hop, and Houston’s hip-hop is a style all its own. It’s an experimental hip-hop, slow of tempo, chopped up and remixed together, and rather psychedelic. |
