 (1 Customer Review)
Standard Screen; Soundtrack English Drawing on a variety of influences, including country, indie-rock, and Latin rhythms to name just a few, Calexico has carved out an inimitable niche in the music world. Formed by core members Joey Burns and John Convertino in 1996, the band was initially conceived as a side project to Burns' and Convertino's work in Howe Gelb's Giant Sand. Success came quickly, however, and Calexico soon became a full time concern. Multi-instrumentalist Paul Niehaus (Lambchop) came on board in 2001, and the group frequently draws on a number of accomplished musicians to flesh out their live sound. November 2002 found the band in London, where they performed as part of the "Further Beyond Nashville" festival at the Barbican Theatre. Touring to support their FEAST OF WIRE album, the group also includes material from their entire career, and are further augmented on a number of songs by guest vocalist Francoiz Breut, and 8-piece mariachi band Mariachi Luz de Luna. The energy and soul of their music is perfectly captured, and is complemented by a documentary on the group's fascinating and eclectic career.

Principally recorded at Wavelab Studios, Tucson, Arizona in July, August & December, 1997.
When not serving as a rhythm section for such acts as Giant Sand, Barbara Manning, Richard Buckner and The Friends of Dean Martinez, multi-instrumentalists Joey Burns and John Convertino comprise Calexico, also featuring Convertino's wife Tasha Bundy on backing vocals. Based in Tuscon Arizona, Calexico makes the most of its proximity to the Mexican border--the music is dominated by Spanish rhythms, sounds, and textures.
THE BLACK LIGHT is mostly instrumental, with a few songs sung by Burns in a voice strangely reminiscent of The Eagles' Glenn Frey. The feel is always relaxed but intriguing, with a wide range of instrumentation (Burns & Convertino play bass, guitar, cello, mandolin, accordian, steel guitar, vibes, drums, marimba, and percussion, with guest musicians handling organ, piano, violin, and claves) very effectively ...

$8.85
On Even My Sure Things Fall Through, Tucson's Calexico compiles eight European B-sides, remixes, covers, and other unreleased tracks, as well as three CD-ROM videos. Such albums often come off as hastily compiled and shoddily sequenced, but Calexico's attempt at a rarities release is surprisingly coherent. From the then-unreleased opener, "Sonic Wind (Instrumental Mix)," to the elegantly lush remake of American Music Club's "Chanel No. 5," the 45-plus minute EP manages to showcase wonderfully the band's deserted desert songs, Tex-Mex music, and arid roots rock. And while diehards may more fully appreciate having these hard to find titles all on one domestically released album, Even My Sure Things Fall Through should prove to be a mini treasure trove for new Calexico fans as well. ~ Jimmy Draper

$8.85
Additional personnel includes: Nicolai Dunger (vocals); Thomas Tjarnqwist (12-string guitar); Tony Crow (keyboards).
The ever-prolific Arizona ensemble Calexico's CONVICT POOL EP offers a mix of covers and original tunes. The title track is a hauntingly spare song featuring only founding members Joey Burns and John Convertino, with Burns's vocals taking on a more emotive quality than that of his usually hushed delivery. "Sirena" includes the full band and mines Calexico's Latino ...
