Sandia Performing Arts Company brings Ay, Compadre! to South Broadway Cultural Center, one of the corridor's most underused but genuinely capable performance spaces. The city-run venue keeps ticket prices accessible, and the room is intimate enough that there isn't a bad seat in the house. Check the CABQ events page for admission details, since the...
Tablao Flamenco Albuquerque runs weekly Sunday matinees in a dedicated tablao space inside Hotel Albuquerque, one of the few venues in the state presenting this art form in a proper...
Jordan Jonas hosts a paranormal-themed evening at Painted Lady Bed & Brew as part of the ongoing Brews and Boos series, which has built a quietly devoted following along this stretch of Central.

The floor gets packed tight for shows like this, so arriving close to doors puts you in a better spot than waiting on the...
Five bands across a single night at Launchpad, anchored by No Cure and Big Ass Truck on a touring bill that leans hard and loud. Launchpad's room is compact enough...
Five bands on one ticket at Launchpad, running from early evening into the small hours of a Thursday night on Central. Big Ass Truck has been a Memphis institution since the nineties, which makes this a genuinely unusual booking for a room this size. Five bands means late sets, so know going in that whoever...
