What better band could there be for Cinco de Mayo than The Iguanas? A local favorite for two decades, the Iguanas are based in Tex-Mex rock and roll but can swing freely into jazz, country, garage and Caribbean music. Their latest CD, Sin to Sin, whose title explains many of the lyrics, came out for last year’s Fest and includes the live favorite “Waiting For My Gin to Hit Me.” Though they usually takes years between CDs, they’re nearly through work on a new one, Blues For Juarez, and the new material should be on display. Opening the show will be Killeen Foundry, a collaboration between Iguanas guitarist Rod Hodges and Walking Wounded singer, Jerry Giddens. The spinoff band just put out an EP called, appropriately enough, Circle Bar.

The Iguanas and Killeen Foundry at the Circle Bar, 1032 Saint Charles Ave. Sunday, May 5 at 10pm, tickets $15. Call (504) 588-2616
