KUNM Studio Sessions

    Thurst Trap is a three piece of electric piano, bass, and drums. With the energy of a punk band and the sensibilities of bass heavy prog rock, they blast the music at you in a frenetic blitz. Fun and engaging, they prove you don't need an electric guitar to rock out.

    Mutual love of the Irish Folk/Punk of their youth brought Thomas Dewers (guitar), Debo Orlofsky (accordion), Terry Bluhm (bass), and Zoom Crespin (drums) together to form Dirty Old Town ABQ.
  • Los Metamorfos performing live in KUNM's Studio A! Led by multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Casey Mráz, METAMORFOS is a quintet that blends a wide variety of music into a whirl of psychedelic world fusion. They mix traditional Andean instruments with roots music in a form they call South Americana.
  • Raul Midón (guitarist, vocalist, mouth trumpeter, sound engineer, etc.) swings by KUNM's Studio A during Thursday Afternoon Freeform to play a few songs and talk about growing up on public radio here in New Mexico, his new album "Lost And Found", his custom recording studio and more.Hosted by Brandon Kennedy and engineered by Roman Garcia.
  • The prolific Albuquerque Rock quintet return to Studio A with a selection of new songs plus their first studio-ready cover song.
  • Albuquerque songwriter Oscar Butler returns to KUNM in a solo performance of songs largely from his album "Chorus of my Life." Afterwards he talks about his evolution as a Performing Songwriter and his recent embrace of Blues forms.
  • Hear about all things Synth by solo act Smoke & Mirrors. Smoke & Mirrors, aka Johnny Limits is an Albuquerque house show veteran. Check out their set and newest tracks, and listen to their wisdom and history of DIY space lore.
  • Is it Chamber Rock or Art Rock? Post-psychedelia maybe? Like a lot of Taos bands, the trio Art of Flying are just fine making sui generis songs & albums, & with 40 years' experience behind them they know there's no substitute for a well-made tune. For this visit the band brought songs from their latest "Heart Slaughter" -- or is it "Heart's Laughter"? -- plus as-yet unrecorded material.
  • Tune into an episode of Thursday Afternoon Freeform with host Brandon Kennedy to the fluid improvisational sounds Of Songs Without Purpose, engineered by Roman Garcia in KUNM's Studio A!
  • Dirtwyrm traveled from Taos to grace us with their mythical sludge metal. Check out their studio session and interview to learn the ways of the Dirtwyrm, screaming tips, and their songwriting inspiration.
  • Albuquerque based band Nympf sheds goth and synth light onto KUNM studios! Let them bestow their knowledge and wisdom of synthwave and the lesser known ways to channel the dark arts.
  • Dynamic Garage Rock Duo Castle Doctor came in to debut their new tracks and share their summer adventures! Listen in to check out their newest material, to hear about their travels as professional musicians, and the shared wisdom learned on the road.
