Hey everyone,

We know it’s been quiet on the Calexico news front for some time now, but today we are excited to let you know that we are in the final stages of recording and mixing our new album.  Over the past year, the band spent time in Mexico City writing, and then returned to our beloved Wavelab Studio in Tucson to record with our longtime collaborators, Craig Schumacher and Chris Schultz.  The album will feature some of our favorite and most gifted friends as guest musicians.  More details and music will be forthcoming soon, but until then we will leave you with our other very exciting news: April 2015 will see the first Calexico tour of Europe to support the new album.  All dates and ticket links are highlighted below and shows will be on sale by Friday at noon.  We can’t wait to return to Europe to share the new music with you.

Warm wishes from Tucson

John, Joey and all in Calexico
