Cast 2016 from your memory with award-winning local music, style, and panache at Forget 2016: A Foundation Room New Year’s Eve Soirée in Foundation Room at House of Blues on New Year’s Eve, Saturday, December 31, 2016.

Striking a similar brash tone to John Oliver’s off-color dismissal to the year 2016, this raucous NYE reboot is far from your typical Foundation Room event or year end party.

Instead, the local bash celebrates the best music Houston has to offer in an unforgettable swanky location.

Local Live Music Lineup

The evening will showcase of the local live music talents of Space Villains, Sobe Lash, Genesis Blu, and Giant Kitty, followed by the late-night sounds of DJ Baby Roo.

Both Space Villains and Genesis Blue took recently home Houston Press Music Awards this year.
