Carma holds down a resident takeover at the Press Club, which means the booth stays in trusted hands for the duration and the night builds with some intention rather than bouncing between unrelated acts. The Press Club's back room runs small, so the floor fills fast and the sound hits differently than it does in...
Mr. AfterHours Presents brings WHF 360° to Effex with Haylee Wood headlining and XBLYSSID in the special guest slot, which typically means the room doesn't find its footing until well past midnight. Effex runs late and loud by design, so if you're coming for the headline set, don't bother showing up at door time. Tickets...
Long-form improv from the Improv Theatre company at The Box, starting well after midnight on a Saturday, which tells you exactly what kind of crowd you'll find. The Box is a proper black box theater, so even a small audience feels like it was planned that way, and the format rewards staying attentive rather than...
The Lobo Sports Vault is the dedicated sports room inside the Historic Lobo Theater, and on Saturdays this fall it runs college football across its screens from open to close, with a buffet available during the lunch window. The big-screen treatment is reserved for Lobos games when the room is theirs, so if UNM is...
Marble's annual late-summer blowout takes over the Downtown taproom and patio with live music and seasonal releases on a Saturday night in August. The Downtown location has more outdoor room than people expect, and the crowd tends to be mixed enough that it doesn't feel like an in-crowd event. Admission details weren't posted at time...
The instructors at Rock 101 Music Academy step out from behind the lesson plans and play a full night of live music at Rio Bravo Brewing. These are working musicians who teach because they love it, not because they couldn't hack it, so expect a higher floor than your average local showcase. Tickets are through...
Selah Cantwell takes the Sawmill Market stage on a Saturday night at 10:30, which puts this squarely in late-night territory for a food-hall setting that typically runs quieter by that hour. The later slot usually means a more concentrated crowd, people who stayed on purpose, and that tends to suit a singer-songwriter well. Ticket link...
This is a one-hour sketch comedy show on The Box's Mainstage, part of a marathon 24-hour festival format where ensembles write, rehearse, and perform new material inside a single day. That constraint tends to produce work that is rawer and more surprising than polished repertory shows, which is either the appeal or the caveat depending...
Ray J & The Moonshiners are bringing their set to Tractor Brewing's Westside spot on Central, a room that tends to reward bands with some grit and doesn't flatter anyone who isn't ready. The show starts at 7 p.m. local time, which is an earlier-than-average door for a Saturday on this stretch, so arriving on...
Silver Sky Blues strips it down to a solo format at one of Nob Hill's most reliable spots for a weeknight beer and some actual music. Tractor's Nob Hill patio faces Central directly, so sound bleeds outside in a way that works in everyone's favor on a warm August night. Admission isn't confirmed from the...
