Current Mood: happy
Starting on Tuesday, November 25th , trek over to Starbucks to grab an iTunes “Pick of the Week” card from the counter because it currently features Calexico with their song “Slowness”, from their latest release Carried To Dust. The card is redeemable for a free download of the track just by entering a unique code into iTunes on your computer. Available while supplies last.

While off in Europe playing a slew of sold out dates earlier this fall, Calexico played the Paradiso in Amsterdam, and in typical fashion, they knocked it out of the park. Luckily, Fabchannel was there to document the whole show, which you can watch in stunning live video right here. It's well worth the time - trust us.

blog post Watch the music video for Calexico's "Two Silver Trees"
Posted in Video on Aug 14, 2008 at 6:08 PM

We recently released two brief album trailer videos that showcased some scenes around Calexico’s home base of Tucson, AZ. The first trailer was composed of visuals highlighting the city's local color, and the second stood on the stark impressiveness of an airplane graveyard.

Directed by James Fleischel, the full music video for “Two Silver Trees” - the track that was recently released for free download right HERE – is impressive in its own right, and acts as the logical marriage between the teaser clips. Elements from both are more fleshed out, and we get a deeper feel for the wide range of Tucson's character: what starts at the cozy confines of the Hotel Congress Tap Bar ends in an expansive and extraordinary desert scene. Go to the profile and take a look.












Calexico will be making a special stop at Twist & Shout in Denver, CO on Saturday, August 9 at 2:30 p.m. They will be playing exclusively at Boulder’s Triple A Radio Summit on the 8th but will stay in Colorado long enough to do a special intimate acoustic performance at the store. Space will be limited, so wristbands are required. Pre-purchase their upcoming album, Carried to Dust (out on 9/09) at the Twist & Shout website, and receive both a wristband that guarantees entry as well as a CD booklet that you can have signed at the event.

Online pre-sale for this event ends on August 7 at 4 p.m.
