Los Texmaniacs, the Grammy-winning San Antonio conjunto band led by Max Baca, share the KiMo stage with Lisa Morales, whose voice carries equal parts grit and tenderness through corridos and Americana. The KiMo's 1927 Pueblo Deco interior does something interesting to accordion-heavy music, the room breathes with it in a way a modern venue simply...
Two improv groups share the stage at The Box for an hour of unscripted comedy, the kind where the audience suggestions actually matter and occasionally derail everything in the best...
Morgan Page is a Grammy-nominated progressive house producer with a catalog stretching back to the mid-2000s, and this is a proper touring DJ set, not a local opener night. Effex runs late and the room gets loud fast, so if you want a good spot on the floor, arriving close to doors matters more here...
LEROY's 'Back to School' EP release brings four local acts to Launchpad for a late Saturday night on Central. Launchpad keeps the stage low and the room tight, so a four-band bill this late means the headliner probably hits close to last call. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so grab them ahead rather than...
A late-night funk and soul dance event at Insideout that runs from roughly 9 p.m. until the sun is coming up, so plan your Saturday accordingly. Insideout is a compact room that gets loud and warm fast, which works in favor of this kind of floor-filling music and against anyone hoping to hold a conversation....
Matt Banwart brings his Midwest-honed standup to Two Cranes Bistro & Brew for a Friday night headlining set. Two Cranes runs a tight room for comedy, meaning the bistro layout keeps tables close to the performer and ambient bar noise reasonably controlled, which matters more than people expect. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so...
Long-form improv at The Box, starting just after 10 p.m. local time and wrapping up before midnight. The Box keeps its room small and its crowd close, which means the...
Thirteen years in, this festival has earned its place on the calendar, bringing blues and guitar-focused performance to one of the most architecturally loaded rooms on Central. The KiMo's Pueblo Deco interior does something to live music that a black-box venue simply cannot, and blues in particular seems to settle into those walls well. Admission...
The Isotopes host Las Vegas in a Pacific Coast League matchup at one of the better mid-level ballparks in the country, a place where the sight lines are genuinely good from almost every seat. The mountain view beyond the outfield wall is the kind of thing you forget to mention to out-of-towners and then watch...
Tori Amos brings her piano-centered performance to Popejoy Hall, one of the few rooms in Albuquerque with acoustics that actually reward that kind of intimacy. Popejoy is a proper concert hall, assigned seating, no bar rail to lean on, which suits her catalog better than a club would anyway. Tickets through Ticketmaster, and this one...
