Jordan Jonas hosts a paranormal-themed evening at Painted Lady Bed & Brew as part of the ongoing Brews and Boos series, which has built a quietly devoted following along this stretch of Central. The bed-and-brew format means the crowd tends to skew curious and unhurried rather than rowdy, so if you want to actually hear...
Two acts, a ticket link, and a 5 a.m. close time: this is a genuine late-night at Insideout, the kind of night that doesn't get started until most of Albuquerque is already asleep. Insideout is a compact room on Central, which means the sound hits hard and personal whether the crowd is three deep or...
Three local acts on one bill at Launchpad, the Downtown corridor room that has been the proving ground for Albuquerque rock and punk for decades. Sunday late-night shows here tend to draw the people who actually care rather than the people who just showed up, which usually makes for a better crowd than a Friday....
Tina, a local instructor, leads a two-hour tie-dye workshop at this kava bar and community hangout on the UNM stretch of Central. The $5 bring-your-own or $10 buy-there shirt pricing...
Two of the more respected names in contemporary heavy rock share a bill at the Sunshine, with Sword's desert-sun riff worship sitting comfortably next to Red Fang's beer-soaked, video-friendly stomp....
The Sword and Red Fang is a genuinely well-matched double bill, both bands trading in the kind of slow-grinding, riff-forward heavy rock that rewards a loud room, and Sunshine's PA delivers. The floor gets packed tight for shows like this, so arriving close to doors puts you in a better spot than waiting on the...
Five bands across a single night at Launchpad, anchored by No Cure and Big Ass Truck on a touring bill that leans hard and loud. Launchpad's room is compact enough that there's no bad spot, but the floor fills fast once the headliner's window approaches, so arriving mid-bill is smarter than arriving late. Tickets are...
Five bands on one ticket at Launchpad, running from early evening into the small hours of a Thursday night on Central. Big Ass Truck has been a Memphis institution since...
Bourbon & Boots runs its weekly international music night here, which on the calendar lands as a Thursday but in practice is a very early Friday morning, running from roughly 8 p.m. local time into the pre-dawn hours. This is a late dance floor crowd, not a casual-drink-and-leave situation, so go in knowing the room...
Toni Morgan and Michael Matison bring a paired vocal concept to jazz standards, trading and blending across the classic American songbook. Outpost is one of the few rooms in Albuquerque...
