This is the best of my music,” writes Leijon.

“The more guitar you play, the more you sing, the better you get,” says Carolyn Wonderland. This weekend Wonderland and her special guest Jeff Plankenhon will be in Northwest Houston at The Heights Theatre.
Wonderland since performing her first professional gig at fiftheen never stopped singing and making music. Her music includes a bold mix of timeless original songs and reinventions of some of her favorites, ranging from blistering electric blues to deep, heartfelt ballads to cosmic country to soulful Tex-Mex. Every song is fueled by Wonderland’s forceful yet melodic Texas flavored guitar work and her full-throated, heart-on-her-sleeve vocals. She’s recorded ten previous albums under her own name, including four produced by Ray Benson, founder of multiple Grammy-winning band "Asleep At The Wheel".
Wonderland critics say have a spine-chilling, soul-deep singing voice matching her guitar prowess note for note. And she has a knack for writing songs that sound like instant classics.

Porter Robinson rocketed to stardom as a teenage EDM producer before his music evolved into an ambitious, introspective form of futuristic electropop. This weekend Robinson is in performance at LiveNation's Bayou Music Center, downtown Houston.
He first reached mainstream chart success with vibrant electro-house tracks like 2012's "Language," a U.K. Top Ten hit. He was already a top-shelf international headliner by the time Astralwerks released his influential 2014 full-length debut, Worlds, after which he continued to branch out, earning a Grammy nomination for "Ghost Voices," a song he released under his trance/hardcore-influences alias Virtual Self. He has curated his own festival and founded a charity benefitting cancer patients in the African nation of Malawi. His long-in-the-making sophomore album, Nurture, arrived in 2021.
In a Reddit review several years ago a concert goer was overwhelmed by Robinson's electronick music shomanship. "He opens with the synthy-sound that introduces the beginning of "Sea of Voices" and the energy in the crowd just skyrocketed. His set consisted of ALL of his Worlds album and a few of his old-time favorites like Say My Name and Language. The crowd just exploded when songs like, Lionhearted, Flicker, Sea of Voices, and one of my personal favorites(not from his discography) Better off Alone by Alice DJ came on."
