DIY to its core, Grupo Fantasma has bypassed corporate handling to bum-rush their high-energy Tejano funk to the masses. A sweet four-horn section and Spanish language vocals meld the Texas-based 11-piece in a focused, full-bodied rhythm. With outside influences (J.J. Johnson to Timbaland) infiltrating this Latin sphere, the live-performance possibilities are wildly open. Local roots reggae duo dub Addis open. Get down Monday, April 4, 8 p.m. at Temple Ball’s De La Luz. Tickets are $8; 929-1208 or www.templeball.com.
