There is no better place to start than the biggest and most long-running supporters of the Las Cruces local music scene Hubbard’s Music. Known locally as the “Best music store in town”, and known nationally as one of the best in the Southwest! They are the central hub for this community, bringing musicians together and making sure they have what they need to make music! They were actually one of the supporters of the first Southwest Metalfest back in 2003, as well as huge supporters in 2023 and 2024 at Amador live, and 2025 at The Grapevine Plaza/Picacho Peak Brewery. They’ve also sponsored KRUXfest for years, local music radio shows on KRUX and KTAL-LP, and numerous other events and concerts over the years.

Thank you Hubbard’s for everything you do, and thank you for always supporting the SWMF!
