Rockefellers Houston

Opening in 1979, acts like Stevie Ray Vaughan, Roy Orbison, B.B. King, James Brown, Muddy Waters, Ray Charles, Warren Zevon, Dwight Yoakam, Bonnie Raitt, Widespread Panic, and the Fabulous Thunderbirds all played the venue near the corner of Washington Avenue and Heights Boulevard. It’s said that SRV’s "The House Is Rockin'” is about a killer night at the club, which was home to many, many Double Trouble gigs. The neoclassical building was designed by Joseph Finger in 1925. The former bank’s vault served as the venue’s green room for artists. Rockefeller's on Washington Avenue has come roaring back to life again and is ready to sit among the best music venues and event spaces in the City of Houston.
