Going out best bets, Jan. 18 to 24

World Music
The music of Afro-Canadian singer-songwriter Pierre Kwenders is rooted in Congolese rumba, the sound of his homeland, but it’s evolved to incorporate influences of his adopted home in Montreal, including R & B, soul, funk and hiphop. He toured the U.K. and Europe last year, appeared at the 2017 TD Ottawa Jazz Festival and is planning a push into English Canada this year, beginning at the National Arts Centre’s Fourth Stage at 8:30 p.m. Saturday. Tickets start at $25,
