Comments (0) Best Club for Local Acts - 2003
Helios
Whether you pick blues on a six-string or spin dance records on the decks, Helios will give you a place to perform. The rambling converted three-story house on lower Westheimer has a total of three performance areas: There are stages upstairs, downstairs and one outdoors for special occasions. On any given night you might find erotic poets, belly dancers, hip-hoppers, rockers, mods, hippies, punks and goths, or any combination thereof. Best of all, virtually every band there is local. Owner Marianna Lemesoff knows that talent seldom arrives fully formed, and it's places like hers where legends are brought into the world kicking and screaming.
