This annual street festival celebrating all things from the bayou is bursting with live dancers, livelier music, and tables overflowing with Cajun seafood, but all that Louisiana color can’t help but pale next to its headliner: After a full day of spicy sights and sounds that includes performances from Big Star Burlesque and over 10 zydeco bands, George Clinton And The Parliament Funkadelic descend in the Mothership to bring their own crazy carnival of insane characters and nonstop funk. Also along for the ride is New Orleans’ Cowboy Mouth, bringing neighbor states together with its likable Americana-style roots music—and if that fails, they’ll surely play 1996’s modest hit “Jenny Says.”

One sure sign of spring: SCOTS take over the Continental Club. The Chapel Hill, N.C., trio’s brand of whacked Americana is a perfect match for that SoCo stage, where greasy blues, fuzzy soul, and banana puddin’ are always right at home. Locals Alejandro Escovedo (Tuesday) and Teisco del Rey (Wednesday) guarantee hearty opening slots, while the headliners continue pluckin’ through this weekend’s multistage Lone Star Rod & Kustom Round Up.more at austinchronicle.com
