Best bets for music this week

Top concert picks around town.

 

Bebel Gilberto

Washington, DC  | 11/23

This member of Brazil's first family of bossa nova brings her warm and percussive tunes to town.

 

R. Kelly

Washington, DC  | 11/24 - 11/25

For all the controversy in his personal life, the R&B singer/producer remains one of the most unpredictable and visionary talents in his genre, from his bizarre and compelling 22-chapter (and counting) opus "Trapped in the Closet" to his 2007 album "Double Up." That audacity and over-the-top demeanor will surely translate to his live show.

 

Shane Hines

Vienna, VA  | 11/27

The local troubadour performs two shows: the first a low-key acoustic performance and the second an all-out rocker backed by a full band.
