Noelle Encinias, Andrea Lozano, and Olivia Marin share the floor for an intimate tablao dinner show at Hotel Albuquerque, with Vicente Griego on cante and Estevan Pacheco on guitar. Tablao format means no row seating between you and the dancers, which changes the experience considerably at high-footwork moments. Tickets through Hold My Ticket move ahead...
Sac One Presents brings Bandit Lordz and El Uno to Moonlight Lounge for another Mic Club 46 installment, one of the more consistent hip-hop booking series working the corridor right now. Moonlight runs late and the crowd tends to arrive that way too, so showing up at the listed start time means you have the...
Mary Gauthier is one of the more unsparing songwriters working in American roots music, the kind who writes about addiction, incarceration, and grief with enough craft that the songs feel like relief rather than punishment. FUSION | 708 is a small room on Central, which means you are close enough to watch her face, and...
Starcrawler brings their Los Angeles glam-punk theatrics to Launchpad, with Albuquerque's own Sluttony opening a bill that should get loud fast. Launchpad's low ceiling and close stage make Arrow de Wilde's frontperson energy hit differently than it does in larger rooms. Grab tickets in advance through Hold My Ticket since this one has the profile...
Martin y Moso brings their act to Town & Ranch, one of the more reliably intimate stops on the Central corridor for live music. The ticket link is live through 505 Live Music, which suggests this is a proper ticketed show rather than a walk-in situation, so buying ahead is the smarter move. Details on...
Jason Bowers takes the stage at Tractor Brewing's Nob Hill location, one of the more reliable spots on the Central corridor for catching a live set with a decent pint in hand. The ticket link is live through 505 Live Music, but admission details haven't been confirmed yet, so check before you show up assuming...
Outpost's Summer Thursday Jazz Nights turns 30 this year, and the Pat Malone Quartet gets a slot in what has quietly become one of the longest-running jazz series in the Southwest. Outpost is a listening room in the real sense, meaning the crowd comes to hear, not to use the music as background noise for...
Norma Jean and Upon A Burning Body are splitting co-headline duties on the Southern Domination Tour, with Fox Lake and Music Is The Enemy opening a bill that runs heavy and loud from the first set. Sunshine Theater holds around 800 and the floor gets genuinely packed for metal shows, so arriving early matters if...
Three local acts stacked on a Friday night at Launchpad, one of the few rooms on Central that still books original music with any consistency. The stage is low and the floor gets close fast, so this is the kind of show where you end up knowing whether the headliner has it or not within...
Three acts covering cumbia, classic goth, EBM, new wave, dark wave, and Rock en Español share the Albuquerque Journal Theatre stage for a single night with a hard cap of 300 attendees. The dance floor is actually the theatre stage itself, open to 250 people at a time on a first-come basis, which means the...
