On hand will be the Euphoria Brass Band, as well as Mission Bay High School\u2019s own The Preservationists. With a stylistic range from brass band to Dixieland, the show promises to be an uplifting experience. The Euphoria Brass Band was chosen to greet the audience at this year\u2019s San Diego Music Awards and proved to be the perfect warm-up act, even with hard-rock groups on the bill. Anyone who enjoys the sounds of &#8220;The Big Easy&#8221; will find these two groups to be virtuosos in their field. Both are helping preserve New Orleans\u2019 musical legacy. <b>\u2022 Euphoria Brass Band\/The Preservationists<\/b> perform at 8 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 26 at <b>Tango Del Rey,<\/b> 3567 Del Rey St. $10. All ages. www.tangodelrey.com They haven\u2019t released an album in three years and have never scored a hit, but there are few bands that can draw a crowd response or are as much fun to watch as Green Jelly. A rock band with comedy overtones, the band\u2019s lineup has been fluid throughout its 31-year existence, but in truth, that hardly matters as it\u2019s the bands costumes and special effects that continue to draw the attention. It can get messy up front, but if you like a circus-like atmosphere and theatrical over-the-top rock \u2019n\u2019 roll, it doesn\u2019t get better than this. <b>\u2022 Green Jelly<\/b> performs at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 27 at <b>Brick by Brick,<\/b> 1130 Buenos Ave. 21 and up. $12. www.brickbybrick.com Ohio-based singer-songwriter Molly Williams performs at the 710 Beach Club on Oct. 29. This free show will feature Williams performing on both guitar and ukulele, with an eclectic set list that ranges from Woody Guthrie to The Beatles. It\u2019s hard these days to get worked up over yet another &#8220;girl with a guitar,&#8221; but Williams has a wonderful voice and winning stage presence that transcends the stereotypes now inherent in the genre. If you\u2019re jaded by the overabundance of acoustic performers these days, give Williams a listen. <b>\u2022 Molly Williams<\/b> performs at 9 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 29 at the <b>710 Beach Club,<\/b> 710 Garnet Ave. 21 and up. No cover. www.710bc.com Anyone looking for Halloween action that\u2019s a bit more upscale than the typical bar bash will want to check out Caf\u00e9-Bar Europa on Oct. 31. Music will be provided by the Hot Blood Orkestar, a Balkan fusion group that has been known to get crowds up on their feet, dancing by the middle of the first song. But that\u2019s just part of the attraction on this night. In addition to $1 shots and $2 beers, there will be $1,000 in prizes for the best costumes. Halloween falls on a Wednesday this year, but at Caf\u00e9-Bar Europa, there will be no skimping on the festivities. <b>\u2022 Hot Blood Orkestar<\/b> performs at 9 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 31 at <b>Caf\u00e9-Bar Europa,<\/b> 873 Turquoise St. 21 and up. www.theturquoise.com\/wordpress Victor Penalosa first rose to prominence in the early 1990s as frontman for powerpop heroes The Melanies, and he\u2019s since had one of the most amazing careers of any San Diego-based musician. Performing at The Griffin on Oct. 31 with his new combo the Phantoms, he\u2019s also been a member of such illustrious national acts as The Magic Christian, The Zeros and The Records. But he\u2019s always at his best in his own groups. With a resume like that, fans of garage rock, jangle pop and powerpop will find much to admire in the Phantoms\u2019 sound.
