Stern's Band
Image by Sandrine LeeGuitarist Leni Stern is at it again. The famous jazz musician returns to New Mexico for a concert at Outpost Performance Space on Thursday, Dec. 5 at 7:30pm. Stern mixes audacious and groovy experimental licks with an authentically indigenous sound provided by a band of African instrumentalists and singers in the Leni Stern African Trio, which features Stern on guitar, Jerome Harris on bass and Alioune Faye on percussion. Her acute playing style and knowing groove has garnered many awards. Stern's latest album is the critically acclaimed record 3. Tickets for this all-ages evening of late-autumn, axe-flavored jazz music range in price from $15 to $20. (August March)

City on the EdgeCity on the Edge is a breezy, smart podcast looking at the stories from Albuquerque history that have often been overlooked. Each episode takes a deep dive into a topic like the 1955 crash of TWA flight 260, Sandia Man or the 1918 quarantine. Worthwhile listening that will spur your curiosity about things you didn’t even know about in the city where you live. It’s free and available wherever you get your podcasts. (Clarke Condé)

2020 Bosque Chile FestivalLooking for a little chile? The 2020 Bosque Chile Festival, a celebration of food, art, and culture on the Rio Grande, is happening Saturday, August 15 and Sunday, August 16, with times waiting to be officially announced. But due to COVID-19 and the State of New Mexico public health order, the festival will be presented virtually! There will still be entertainment, art activities, a virtual artisan market, chile-chef demonstrations, educational workshops and more. This free, all-ages event is meant to give those stuck at home a chance to see what the state has to offer. If you are a high-quality chile-inspired and authentic New Mexican business with an e-commerce website and want to be a vendor, there is still time. Applications are being accepted until Wednesday, August 5. For more information email bosquechilefestival@bernco.gov.
