Venue review

The musician's read

FUSION is an independent multidisciplinary performance venue in Albuquerque with professional sound and production support. Experimental, jazz, rock and ambient programming all make sense in the 21+ space, giving adventurous artists more room than a conventional nightlife venue. The technical capability and performance-first setting reward acts that arrive with a deliberate show rather than a casual background set.
