Calexico

Hi guys and girls,

I just watched Austin City Limits from Sat night and saw Calexico. Wow, what a great show! I’m wondering… does anyone know the set-list of what they played that night. Also, any feedback / comments on the band would be appreciated. I’m just learning about these guys and want to hear more.

Thx,

John

Excellent band - get the CD with “wire” in the title and also Blacklisted by Neko Case - they’re her backing band and her voice is wonderful.

They made an EP with Iron and Wine a couple of years ago called In the Reins that’s excellent. IIRC, a couple of the songs they did on ACL were from that. Can’t find a setlist, though.

They do backup for a couple of people on the I’m Not There soundtrack, too. Great stuff.

Sirius has started playing this band on their Spectrum channel - I just heard one of their songs on the way to work this morning. I like it.

Also - if you like theses guys, check out Ghosts of the Great Highway by Sun Kil Moon - hauntingly excellent.
