Hey, ABQ!
If you’re in Albuquerque – or if you’re enough of a music fan to drive to ABQ for some sweet ass concerts – March is the month for you. Well, to clarify, the LATTER part of March is the part of the month for you.
After all, the city just a few hours from our fair area will be seeing a large range of killer acts coming through this month, including performances from Death Cab for Cutie, who just released their latest album, “Thank You for Today,” in August 2018. In case you weren’t familiar, that weirdo rock band with ol’ Ben Gibbard, on vocals, guitar, piano; Nick Harmer on bass; Dave Depper on guitar, keyboards, and vocals; Zac Rae on keyboards and guitar; and Jason McGerr on drums, will possess your heart. There’s nothing creepy about that.
What we’re trying to say is: your plans should involve not missing these upcoming concerts that’ll be taking place in ABQ over the next few weeks. Can we hitch a ride?
