Our Take

The latest offering from the kings of desert rock, CALEXICO, is a sunset-soaked journey through the dusty borderlands of Americana. El Mirador sees the band blending their signature blend of Tex-Mex twang with dreamy indie pop sensibilities, resulting in a sound that is as intoxicating as a margarita at a Mexican beach bar.

From the opening track "End of the World with You" - a hauntingly beautiful ode to lost love - to the closing notes of "Throw My Hat Over the Wall", El Mirador is a rollercoaster of emotions that will have you reaching for your cowboy boots in no time. The interplay between Joey Burns' velvety vocals and John Convertino's masterful drumming is as tight as ever, creating a musical symbiosis that is truly a joy to behold.

Standout tracks include the mariachi-infused "Flores y Tamales" and the melancholic "Voices in the Field", both of which showcase CALEXICO's ability to seamlessly blend genres and create a sound that is uniquely their own. With El Mirador, the band proves once again why they are considered one of the most innovative and exciting acts in the alt-country scene.

So grab a cold beer, throw on your cowboy hat, and let CALEXICO take you on a musical journey through the wild west. You won't be disappointed.
