Tonight on the corridor
Doug Lawrence, a tenor saxophonist with deep New York jazz credentials, brings the Great American Songbook to the museum's outdoor amphitheater alongside organist Dan Trudell, vocalist Hillary Smith, and special guest Pete Amahl. This is the 35th year of Music Under the Stars, which means the production is well-rehearsed, the lawn fills up early, and...
The Box hosts a short-run improv comedy show, one hour of unscripted ensemble work from a local theatre company that has been building a quiet following in this room. The Box is an intimate black-box setup, so there is no bad seat and nowhere to hide if you laugh too loud. Tickets are through Hold...
Five local and regional acts stack up on the Launchpad stage with DJ Thot Daughter holding down the transitions, which makes this less a typical punk show and more a proper underground event night. Launchpad runs loud and warm on a full bill in August, so dress accordingly and hydrate before you walk in. Tickets...
Brad Cole's Strange Mix nights have built a reputation on Downtown's late-night circuit for genuinely unpredictable programming, the kind of set where the genre doesn't matter as much as the energy in the room.

Anna Recalde Miranda's 2024 documentary connects the political violence of Operation Condor in 1970s Latin America to Paraguay's present-day agricultural crisis, arguing that the same power structures behind torture and land grabs now sustain an agrochemical soy industry that is decimating soil, insects, and Indigenous communities. This is part of an ongoing documentary series at...

Sawmill Market's open layout means the music bleeds into the whole building, so you can catch the set from a bar stool or a table without planting yourself in front...
Three bailaores, a cantaora, and a guitarrista perform live tablao flamenco in the intimate sala inside Hotel Albuquerque, a setting that puts the footwork close enough that you feel it in your chest. This is a serious production with serious people: Noelle Encinias has been one of the more respected names in New Mexico flamenco...
Original collections from New Mexico designers hit the runway inside the Lobo Theater's 1938 Art Deco house, with the audience casting the votes that decide both the Designer Award and...
Phoenix-based The Technicolors bring their brand of muscular, melody-forward rock to Launchpad, with Albuquerque's own Dymer opening the night. Launchpad's low ceiling and close-quarters floor make this the kind of room where a loud band actually sounds better than it would in a bigger space. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so buy ahead rather...
Kevin Barnes has been making gloriously unhinged psych-pop under the of Montreal name since the late 90s, and the live show leans hard into the theatrical mess of it all....
