Three bailaores, a cantaor, and guitarist Chuscales perform traditional flamenco in a seated dinner-show format at Hotel Albuquerque on a Friday evening. Chuscales has backed some of the most serious flamenco artists working today, so this skews closer to a genuine performance than dinner theater, even if the setup looks the same from the outside....
The Rhythm Room opens on Central with a grand opening block party headlined by J. Holiday, the R&B singer whose quiet-storm catalog from the mid-2000s still fills rooms that know their music. Grand openings on this stretch of Central have a habit of running long on ceremony and short on performance, but Reloaded Talent booking...
Flor de Toloache is a New York-based all-women mariachi group that has spent the better part of a decade expanding what the genre can hold, pulling in jazz, cumbia, and bolero without losing the thread back to traditional son. The Albuquerque Museum's courtyard is one of the better outdoor venues on the corridor, small enough...
The 505 Junglists crew brings another REWIND installment to Inside Out, with Halfblud and MS Vicious handling jungle and drum and bass across the night. Inside Out runs small and close, which works in everyone's favor for music built around sub-bass you feel before you hear it. The listed 9 PM start time is a...
Three electronic acts, MydNyte, S.A.I.N.T., and Sofly, take over Luna Kava Bar for a late-night session billed as an afters under The Cave series. The 3:00 AM UTC timestamp and a source note flagging the 9:00 PM start as a placeholder both suggest the actual door time is unconfirmed, so check the ticket link before...
Five local acts share the Launchpad stage for a night built around the kind of sweaty, unapologetic summer energy the name promises. Launchpad runs late and the crowd tends to arrive late too, so the early slots on a bill like this are where you catch something before everyone else figures it out. Tickets are...
A Liminal 77 Production brings Platonic Ideal into The Box Annex, the smaller, more immediate of the two spaces inside The Box Performance Space on Central. The Annex puts the...
505 Junglist is back with a six-DJ drum and bass showcase, putting Syndicrypt, Halfblud, MS Vicious, DNDY, MYDNYTE, and Jayzo G on the same bill at Insideout. This is Albuquerque's most consistent jungle and DnB crew doing what they do on home turf, and the room at Insideout is small enough that the bass actually...
Four local and regional heavy bands stack a Friday night at the Mezzanine, which sits above El Rey's main floor and runs tighter and louder than most rooms its size....
Mr. AfterHours Presents drops DANSYN into Effex for a WHF 360° night, which means the production gets the full room treatment rather than a stage-and-crowd setup. Effex runs late and the crowd arrives later, so if you show up before midnight you will be standing in a very different room than the one this is...
