    Downtownlate nightTickets

    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...

  • of Montreal at Sister Bar

    Sister Bar
    Downtownindie alternativeTickets

    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. Sister Bar is a small room, which means you will be closer to whatever costume-and-confetti situation unfolds than you probably expect. Sloppy Jane is not...

    Inside Out
    Downtownlive musicTickets

    A late-night showcase at one of Downtown's corridor anchors, running from 9 PM to midnight and built around regional artists doing original work. Insideout tends to reward the crowd that shows up early, since the room fills faster than people expect once word gets around. Tickets are through Hold My Ticket, so grab them in...

  • Sorry Guero, Unseen Espiritu & Abscond

    Launchpad
    Downtownlive musicTickets

    Three local acts share the Launchpad stage in what the ticket link suggests is a pre-sold, properly organized show rather than a last-minute walk-up situation. Launchpad's sound is genuinely good for a room that size on Central, and late-night shows there tend to draw a crowd that actually pays attention. Grab tickets ahead of time...

  • Levi Dean Live at Sawmill Market

    Sawmilllive musicDetails

    Levi Dean brings his set to the open food hall floor at Sawmill Market, one of the corridor's more unusual live music settings. The room is loud by design, with hard surfaces and competing kitchen noise, so this works best as background-forward listening while you eat rather than a dedicated sit-and-watch show. A ticket link...

  • Cruise Control & Speed One Live

    Inside Out
    Downtownlive musicTickets

    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...

    Josh Glenn Experiment takes the stage at Tractor Brewing's Nob Hill location, one of the more reliable spots on the corridor for catching live music with a beer that actually justifies the stop. The ticket link through 505 Live Music suggests this is a proper ticketed show rather than a walk-up situation, so checking availability...
